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.

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

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. |

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. |

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. |

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.
