    Well, i just did the dirty deed. MSG July 28th Tuesdsy show $505 plus fees. What l don't understand is that l could not find general admission tickets and there availability.  Does anyone know anything about GA tickets?

    congrats…was this on a site like stubhub? Where are the seats?


    usually rush prefers seated rows in front of stage. The travel packages refer to “a tickets in front rows 2-12”

    Was between 31000-32000 in the queue for Rush Toronto 3 and 4 (Amex presale).  For Toronto 3 when I got in there were $400 tickets and up (Canadian).  Passed.  For Toronto 4 I lucked into a $190 + fees single which isn’t too bad of a seat actually.  It’s over 10 months away but glad to have it.

    Hopefully, Rush will be coming to Europe soon. They were in Germany in 2015, and we couldn't go...it still annoys me today.

    I got the best queue position for the final show in Toronto.  Bought some pretty good but expensive tickets.  

    As a British Columbian, and the fact many tours don't stop in Vancouver, I wonder how many times I'm going to Toronto next year to catch a few bands.

    same - never saw rush, will likely still never see rush due to the demand and cost, $350+ is crazy, I blame Taylor Swift and her stupid tour.  Parents spent way too much to make their kids happy which is great but the ripple effect since has been crazy high ticket prices.  Yes, I understand, nobody is making anybody do anything but these prices have gotten out of control.

    Anyone who scored tickets for less than $500 did great. I got on the nyc presale early and most of what was there were the vip travel packs for $2500, lower tiered vips for $600-$900, and platinums for just under $1000. I saw a handful of lowers at $388 and uppers at $250, but the standard price tix would appear and disappear in the same second. I bought a pricey vip no travel on Friday and am hesitating dropping so much for a second show.

    and I’m fairly certain I saw scalpers buy blocks of 8 of those $2500 tickets in the first ten rows. They were disappearing together. Needless to say they’re were all gone in minutes.

    I've never seen nor dreamt of anything like this.

    I saw them in 2004 on the 30th anniversary tour. I found my ticket and it cost $38.50.

    I've seen many amazing concerts for under 40, but it was decades ago.  A reunion tour for a band that's been dormant for 10 years, and most people didn't expect them to play again.  Yah it was going to be expensive.

    I used the AMEX presale, but bought Amex Premium tickets which were 500 plus fees.  but they're pretty good tickets.  If I'm going to travel across the country to go to the show, why not get good tickets.

    There were $200ish tickets towards the rear upper deck of the venue.
