    Yeah, it is a bit pricey, but it's not that bad when you consider that we don't pay any booking fees, credit card charges or postage fees like everyone else going through ticketmaster will. We're guaranteed standing too.
    well, I expect the ticket to be around £35 face value, so with the booking fee/postage, etc, that'll end up about the same.

    difference is it's included in the price with 10c...which is fine in the UK... but not so in countries where they don't charge such extortionate amounts on fees (but the mark up on 10c tix is still the same)...France for example.

    In effect, we pay for the 15mn advance entry sice it is cheaper through normal booking.
    In London's case, we pay for the privilege of just getting a ticket...but considering teh ridiculous way in which concerts sell out...it's a privilege worth paying for!

    Seems like prices have been on the rise ...

    Buffalo 2003: $77 a pair

    Kitchener 2005: $116 a pair

    Pittsburgh 2006: $117 a pair

    And now they are up to almost $200 a pair on average.

    There's no question that touring Europe is more costly for the band, for numerous reasons. It will be interesting to see if they tour and US or Canadian cities in 2007 how much those tickets will me ...

    it is not the average of $200 a pair.
    the highest is slightly more.
    average should be quite lower

    It would probably be cheaper for the UK crowd to fly to Poland and see the show there over buying the $100 tickets for the Wembley gig.

    thats a good idea actually!!!!
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
  • Wolfmother was my favorite but its now easy to see why tickets cost so much more this time around having Linkin Park or Incubus opening for them.
