I was angry about ticket prices....
![1STmammal2wearPants](https://us.v-cdn.net/5021252/uploads/userpics/3IC3T0ZC5R8B/n3G4VW6KJXVC0.jpg)
....mostly the big jump from 94 to 123 a ticket at Fenway.
But then I saw seats in Loge at Fenway (not the field, mind you, where I sat in 2016 via 10c) for Foos at Fenway, and those were $106 a pop after fees.
Couple this with all the seats 10c reserved, less shows this time around, needing to pay the crew, Boston being insanely expensive anyways, and the fact that they'll play for 3 hours and never will have "tiered" pricing of $500 for front row seats, AND that they're a religious experience every time I see them (not to mention that I'm bringing my college roommate who has never seen them and I can't wait to see the skepticism wiped off his face
), AND that they give a shit and the setlist will be completely different each night.....and it makes me less peeved now. It's all value, and while it's a jump from 2016, they are worth their weight in gold when it comes to being worth the $123 a ticket.
They'll bring it. And I can't wait.

And I hope the increase $ is due to ticketmaster fees that then allowed the band to secure more 10C seats. All worth it if true.

Like I said, the price is the price and I do think they are giving more of a cut to ticketmaster to obtain more fan club and verified fan tickets.

Two thumbs pointed at this guy!
But I did splurge on the VIP for Primus/Mastadon because the cost vs what you receive is a no brainer.

that is what I have been saying.
it's not a coincidence that TM gets involved and the price jumps that much.
I am an OG. I remember the Ticketmaster fight. their percentages are insane. they wanted $6 on a $20 ticket back in the day. you do the math..... those service fees add up quick.
I guess they made a deal with the DEVILs to get more fanclub tix.
