I noticed that and really don't get that. Tickets for Barcelona and Holland are reasonably priced. 60E/65E is the most expensive ticket you can buy.

It's what happens when the promotor owns the venue....

They have also somehow persuaded people that the venue itself should command a ticket premium, on top of any London premium that already exists. Add in an "exculsivity" clause that ensures the band doesn't play anywhere else in the country and that's a few more quid coming your way....

Yeah, I thought that would be the case. It's a real shame.

Ultimately, I get pissed off with the people prepared to pay these ridiculous prices. It's hard to blame a band for getting what they can for their tickets. But anyone who thinks £100 to see Aersomith, or £200 to see Jovi is a fair price is a ****ing idiot, who ruins it for the rest of us. It IS sad to see Silly Money prices becoming normalized, but only because people seem to be happy to be ripped off.

There are very few bands in the world who offer a totally unique product, of exquisite quality. 9.9 times out of 10, you are better off spending your money on a band (or five) who doesn't treat you like a cash cow.

Never saw Aerosmith live and won't now, thanks to those prices.

Wonder if these shambolic prices will be spread over the news and such? I doubt it.

Was getting a ticket until I saw the price, they still have tickets on sale.. guess the demand wasn't as huge as they thought.

No wonder - I rather see the original Spinal Tap than this copy!

Here's a video of Tom confirming that they are working on a new record, with original material. It's about time, but I'm not exactly sure how it will be. As long as it's NOT like Just Push Play, and more like anything before Just Push Play, I will be happy.
