How Much Have You Ever Paid For Tickets?
 
Out of all the shows you've gone to over the years how much have you paid ? Was the money worth the show? Are you willing to pay more if its a band you really like?

The most Ive paid so far is $50 to see Bob Dylan and i feel it was worth it. The guy is a legend and is still playing since the 60s.It was a great show too, Dylan still puts on an interesting live show.

the most I've paid is 36 euros to see Radiohead in Piazza Castello in Ferrara, (same place SY played in a couple days ago), I don't regret it at all. Amazing show.

I don't think I've spent over £15.

jennthebenn 07.09.2007 03:02 PM

55 bucks for devo. TWICE.

I spent 70 euros on a Pearl Jam ticket. I felt like I was being robbed but it was worth every cent.

Pax Americana 07.09.2007 03:13 PM

I spent $65 for tickets to an upcoming Police show.

The most I spent for Sonic Youth was like $30 I think.

$35 for a mediocre Sonic Youth show.

a lot more to go to bonnaroo, which was totally worth it.

Toxa 07.09.2007 03:32 PM

1500 roubles.. it is about 60$. for Sonic Youth of course!

When I was in Australia I went to see The Cure and that was like Aus$65 or something, which I remember being ridiculously expensive when converted to the dutch currency at the time (guilder). Anyway that was pre-euro times so I don't really know how it would compare nowadays... surely over 40 euros though.
DDN gigs in London are expensive too... stupid pound sterling!


I think Radiohead 4-5 years ago was somewhere between 35-40 euros as well.

$90 for The Who. What a waste.

My most expensive was to take my girlfriend to see Kylie Minogue a couple of years ago, and that was about £40, I think.

For myself, probably about £30 to see Sonic Youth and a similar amount to see Nick Cave.

screamingskull 07.09.2007 04:05 PM

£25.00 per ticket x 4 tickets for sonic youth.

^^^^
Ditto, except I only bought 2 tickets.

HaydenAsche 07.09.2007 04:54 PM

I spent like 50 bucks on Radiohead. Other than that, I haven't paid more than 15 bucks or so.

For my girlfriend's birthday in august I purchased two Tony bennet tickets a few months ago. Each runs about $85.00. He is her favorite.

Something like $35 bucks for a Franz Ferdinand. It wasn't worth it mostly because I'm not a big fan and the show was very... forced (you know, fake smiles and heartless guitar solos). Too bad I owed somebody the favor of going.
