Why aren't you going anymore Lando?


I still am, I just have extra tickets.

Upper balcony seating is $90

U2 tickets were ridiculously expensive over here, too, if you weren't able to get standing (which were still pretty mad at £55!). We were lucky enough to get them from someone who decided they didn't want to go and were nice & honest and sold them at face value. They were absolutely AMAZING. I would have paid double, easily. Seriously, if you have the chance to go: do it.

why would they charge $130 more to be farther away from the stage? this doesn't make sense - or do you mean it's $187 for all of the tickets combined?

Nope, for ONE ticket.

They charge only $50 for floors, only because only the biggest fans want floor or something like that. I don't know. It's all speculation really. I just read that somewhere.

ooh, well that's kind of cool then

In a way, but they're such a big band that they know they can charge insane prices and still sell out no problem.

I think it's at least cool that not ALL of the tickets are insane prices. Since they could get away with it.

Yes, that may be true but scalping is a bad thing. I don't mind it when people sell tickets for face value but it bugs me when people sell tickets for a rediculous price. :uh:

yeah, but the people bidding on the tickets are ready and willing to pay those prices. if they weren't then there would be no scalping.

Yeah but it screws over the people who can't afford to pay that much.

Being rich is already an advantage in this world for too many things... it shouldn't be when it comes to something as simple as seeing your favorite band live.
