They are very expensive. Cant understand it
Very little production. It's the biggest arena in Ireland.
i wish i wish i wish i wish, i guess it never stops0 -
Aren't all the prices top tier?There are cheaper seats available in general.0

In fairness to Eddie, it is Jeff on Sirius XM Pearl Jam radio who constantly tells me how they fight to keep prices down for the fans. Gotcha!0

1995 is a long time ago, people change. I know I am not the same person so I am guessing Ed isn’t either.I'll ride the wave where it takes me......0

Just a reminder that TM does NOT set ticket prices.
This is, more often than not, a decision made between the promoter, management, and the artist.
Service charges are set by TM. Often in conjunction with the venue, promoter, management, and the artist.0 -

I have no idea why, what, where....This guy is suing ticketmaster.
But I am pretty sure I can figure it out....
That said...In the year 2019, paying $150 or so for a ticket to see Eddie Vedder? That's sounds about right.
Its not 1995
Its not 2005
Its not 2015

I know it's smaller venues and will probably sell out, but personally I cannot wrap my head around paying more for an EV solo show than a Pearl Jam show.SPEEDY MCCREADY said:mcgruff10 said:1995 is a long time ago, people change.

I see your point. And its a good point. But $150 for a concert ticket, in my eyes, is a fair price in this day and age.
I always go back to the fact that people here will spend thousands of dollars on posters, stickers, downloads, shirts, socks etc. Yet complain that the concert ticket is $150. I just don't get it. Never have, Never will.

I go to 50-60 shows per year. Took a quick look through my last two years and, a couple festivals aside, I only paid around that for 3 shows:SPEEDY MCCREADY said:pjl44 said:

Guns N' Roses in an arena
Roger Waters in an arena
Nine Inch Nails in a theater
Believe me, if it sells out (and it probably will) then maybe the tickets are priced too low! But that would definitely be high enough for me to tap out if it were here in Boston. Not on the same level as those 3 shows for me. But I do completely understand if it is for others.0 -

Obviously everyone has that choice, but it doesn't mean that PJ/EV are above any criticism. $165 USD for an EV solo show is pretty crazy...0 -
I'll admit I was surprised by the price too. I'd pay it for a US show, but still surprised by it.Indifference71 said:mcgruff10 said:If you guys don't like the prices don't go. You are the consumer.
