Concert tickets - How much would you pay?

Dunno if you are the camping kind but Timberlake may do a couple of the more commercial festivals next year ... He is rumoured for the Isle of Wight festival at present (£185 12th-15th June - wait until line-up announced before buying).

Justin Timberlake is a Live Nation artist. Can't see him doing IoW anytime soon.

For the young 'uns ... 12/6 = 62.5p

This takes me back.

When I started at University at Leicester in 1972, the Ents office had a framed contract with the Jimi Hendrix Experience hanging on the wall. I think it dated from 1968 and the booking fee was 75 guineas (£78 15s 0d).

Its the mrs birthday next April and one of her favourites is Justin timberlake who has just announced tour dates in April 2014.

Looking at the presale the standing tickets are £110 plus fees with seated from £50 right in the rafters.

Good folk of NSC, are concert tickets becoming ridiculously overpriced or are these justfied?

How much would YOU pay to see someone you enjoyed listeining to?

Please dont turn this into a 'Justin, why are you going to see him' thread.

I see what you did there!

So us men pay xxxxx to watch football and the Mrs can't have a night out for a couple of hundred? Some of you are so tight jeez.

Mrs Earle's idea of a good night out is an evening match at the Amex!

I know someone who paid £6000 for 2 O2 Zeppelin tickets and said it was the best money he has ever spent , although he told his wife 'they were only £600'. Think I paid £5 in 79 at Knebworth to see them. Remember paying £1 to see Supertramp at Dome supporting by Chris De Burgh !!!

My Mrs used to buy tickets off ebay every time The Charlatans played in London, she would basically bid until she won the tickets regardless of price but God help if once there I paid the extra 20p for Red Stripe instead of Carling!
