The Music Thread Strikes Back

I'll weigh in with my usual, saw them for £3.50 at the Civic. (AC/DC that is)

fuck off ( )
my mate always used to goad me by saying he saw them for £3.50, with Bon Scott.

I saw Supergrass in the late 90s and it was £15.
I am buying tickets for the I Should Coco 30th anniversary tour this morning and it's €50

On this - the hidden charges are another sharp practice that needs to be regulated and transparently communicated.
Supergrass was advertised as €45 per ticket, I knew there would be a booking fee etc.
The actual cost per ticket was €57 as there was handling fees, service fees and a 3.50 restoration fee to the venue as its an old Theatre.
I bought 4 tickets for me and my mates but its quite a jump to go from paying the expected €180 to €228

My mate was a giant black fella, who sadly passed away just over 2 years ago. If that's you, how you posting?

Sydney’s ticket for AC/DC a few months ago was £150, told her to enjoy it because I’ll never be paying that again.

That's nearly £50 per bassline!

In that case, I am as well!
