    the progression over 4 years seems outrageous too.. $400 to 750 to 1k to 5k????

    sure theres lots of wealthy people blah blah but i dont think theres enough people to fill 500 person to 1,000 person pen at 5k a ticket.

    They will fill that very easily because its in Central Park
    maybe not if they lowered it to 3500.. whats next 2500? someone tap me when its 750 again ;)

    There is a VIP backstage area too that comes with it. I doubt the bands are going to be there though.

    Seems sort of like you are poking fun at money that is going to charity.

    It's so the rich celebrities don't have to be around us peons

    Does anyone think the inflated VIP prices are somehow related to the fact that PJ is playing this year? Not that the band or 10C would have any control over that, but because it's PJ who still has a pretty loyal following, the organizers know some of us will shell that out...? Just seems really high compared to years past...

    I think the prices would have been jacked up whoever was headlining. Their management wants to get paid more...
    This reminds me of something about "suit coats and money to be made" but at a charity event?
    Oh please let it rain today.

    I'm not bashing this organization specifically, but most of these big charities have a low percentage of the money actually go to charity.

    also theres LOTS of loose tax writeoffs for all these corporations and sponsors and promoters. If anyone should get a writeoff it is the person spending 15k for a pair of concert tix. but they are not.

    Up to 10K now for VIP1. The 3500 looks like a steal in hindsight. (I kid, I kid.)

    If the proceeds go to charity the ticket buyers should be able to write it off.

    Okay, I'm confused. They are now showing 8 levels of Platinum tickets with some only $1,500. They also show row and seat numbers. What is this?

    This is TM figuring out they left a lot of money on the table by selling VIP tickets at $150-$250. These platinum are those exact same tickets (that are now sold out at $150-$250) being marked at 10 times original price. Ticketmaster is against scalping except when they do it.
