Weezer and Smashing Pumpkins at the O2 in June is £75 a ticket. £75. Nearly £100 less for a double headline gig.
Why are people still defending these insane prices?"Hey Eddie, great show-- fuck you!"

There were a few venues with multiple price tiers (I think Baltimore was a $10 difference between P1/pit and P2), so we'd probably still have that option, so, you'd probably be able to select the tier(s) you're most comfortable paying for, though that might reduce your chances of getting a ticket.

At worst, they have sold out and ripped off their own fans in the worst and most ironic way.
Hope it's the former. Even if it's the latter, it's not too late to repent! Refer to Robert Smith/The Cure for how to handle Ticketmaster!
I wish someone would find one band other than the Cure that limited prices.
All tix were $85.00 with TM fees capped at 7 dollars and change.
There were no platinum tix, no resales (no red dots on TM), no dynamic pricing.0 -

Man, this thread has 9 lives. I thought for sure it was fizzling out when it pivoted to strategy on getting double meat scoops at Chipotle. I was wrong.0

But then Weezer couldnt come across to the Uk and sell out the 02 or a festival day at Hyde park. They remain a solid club band and one I love to go and see. Id argue the Pumpkins are probably still a reasonable arena band, but I think their popularity days are well behind them. When it comes to selling tickets I strongly feel that PJ have them both schooled in the UK0 -

I’m done. After 19 years, my auto renewal is turned off. I just don’t see the benefits of giving money to Ten Club when I can’t afford ticket prices, the seat locations are insulting, and the site is more about selling merch than sharing music and building community. Blessings and peace to you all. I’ll keep dancing with you in spirit and sound, just not in money.Post edited by bicyclejoe onMy Pearl Jam Road: 10/22/90 Seattle | 12/22/90 Seattle, Moore Theater | 9/29/92 Seattle, Magnusson Park, Drop in the Park | 9/5/93 The Gorge, with Neil Young and Blind Melon | 7/20/06 Portland, Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall with Sleater-Kinney | 7/22/06 The Gorge, 10/21/06 Mountain View, Shoreline Ampitheatre, Bridge School Benefit | 9/21/09 Seattle | 9/22/09 Seattle | 9/26/09 Portland, OR | 7/14/2011 Eddie Vedder, Portland, OR | 11/29/13 Portland, OR0

PJ is a bigger brand than SP or =w=.That being said, Green Day and SP are playing Wrigley and their tickets were $20 more than PJ (after fees)0

My guess is SP, Weezer and PJ all have about the same number of casual fans, which is the vast majority. But PJ has a lot more die hards. Ones that are willing to travel, ones that feel the need to see at least 1 show every tour, multiple if possible. Buy every album, multiples of every album actually.
I hear more negative things about PJ than I do Weezer or SP. Maybe that's because I pay more attention to it or because I am part of that die hard crowd I draw that conversation more. But there is a lot of negativity associated with PJ that I don't necessarily hear about other similar bands.
