If it doesn't sell out we will know it was overpriced.

Otherwise, priced well, or perhaps even underpriced. (as usual)

Expensive yes, overpriced............ think you will be wrong on that charge.

On sale April fool's day eh? :think: :think: :think: :think: :think:

When you consider the man's worth....and the state of the economy....and the fact that it's not an entire band but just one man sitting there for two hours....yeah $90 after service charges for 2 hours is overpriced in my opinion. Great show but the show I saw in Philly in 2009 was almost the exact same show I saw in Newark the previous year.

Underpriced as usual? Really?

You fail to grasp the idea of price point. That is the point where if something is overpriced it won't sell (well, out, as well as it might).

But that is not the case with EV solo shows. They are underpriced, thus they sell out very fast and many people who wanted a ticket at that price feels left out.

Now if they were priced correctly, let's say $150.00 per ticket, and they didn't sell out until the day of the show then you could say they were perfectly priced.

if they were over priced (let's say $200 per ticket) and didn't sell well, and didn't sell out, then it would be safe to say they were overpriced.

So yeah, just like most of Pearl Jams shows, they are under market price. That is why scalpers have such a blast reselling these tickets for market value.

If $90.00 is over priced for YOU, then don't go, but if they sell then you can't make that claim for the event.

Them the facts.

P.S. Does considering a mans worth always come into play when deciding if something is a good value/priced right?

I've never seen that factor calculated into supply and demand. lol.

Last amendment.

I think it is fair to say, when all of the tickets for a single venue are the same price then you do get some tickets at said event that are overpriced.

for example if the tickets are $50.00 each then those up front are grossly underpriced, while the last row, or last few rows might turn out to be overpriced.

However with this said, I think this is calculated into the price point, where they are willing to give up the back few rows as unsold to make the entire event priced at the same level.

I don't prefer this method, but I think this way of pricing a venue has been favored by Pearl Jam/EV. In the end most of the last few seats still sell out, but not always.

big sigh..
I'm reading this as i sit at Boston-Logan waiting for my flight home.
I wish i could just stay, I love this city.

Man, this is awesome. So does 10c send out the password for the presale or do we buy through 10c? I guess we will find out in the coming days.

PS Ed, don't forget CT when you are up here.

:shock:

nice!

Those BEACON tickets will sell out in a mnts , they are not overpriced at all specially for that venue and Location ...
