 good point.pdalowsky said:Having seen two shows, I do understand the many arguments in this thread and understand the cost is high but I am still in the mindset that those shows were worth every penny I paid and a lot more. They were phenomenal and we had such an amazing time. They will no doubt be the best shows I see all year and for that I am always grateful.
 I cant wait for next time, and if the costs are even higher I'll pay it gladly.
 Being a football fan we will regularly pay £60 for 90 minutes of football (in the north of course) and its often dreadful and barely qualifying of entertainment. When put next to those shows I witnessed on this leg, everything is in perspective.
 I have spend 40€ for a game two years ago. A relegation battle game short before the end of the season. What I get was lousy entertainment - two crappy teams almost without any noticeable skills, performed by overpaid people on the field - at least a 1:1.
 Result: What a waste of money I thought - still had that in mind days later.
 Edit: further 40€ plus 20€ for a kid ticket were not paid by me but wasted too.At 160£ / approx. 200€ I hit the Go - button to check Manchester‘s brand new CoopArena (especially build for concerts - loud ones;) + PJ in there.
 Result: crazy price I think but
 less than 1€£ wasted.Post edited by D-Day on0

 Zen23, how much would you pay for your ticket / at what price would you shot your ticket on screen to enter the barn gig (capacity 700) at the waterfront in Norwich ?Post edited by D-Day on0

 You're true to your word, right?D-Day said:Zen23, how much would you pay for your ticket / at what price would you shot your ticket on screen to enter the barn gig (capacity 700) at the waterfront in Norwich ?
 I was willing to pay £160 / €190 for Manchester. If the Adrian Flux Waterfront in Norwich with room for 700 people is the only location on their next European / UK tour, I'm willing to pay more. But you already knew the answer. But let's be honest. Does it really make a difference to Pearl Jam whether they take in 700 times €190 euros or 700 times €1,000? What difference does that make in their world? I'm more in favour of everyone donating their €1,000 to a charitable organization. And Pearl Jam play for free.

            Zen,
 sure - I’m not interested enough in the US tour. Will check DM Tracks ? played and maybe some other stuff from far away;) No entries on the scoreboard further than Portugal by me.
 2 weeks of my membership are over - I will and can use the place without typing anything in the forum - except the „still not announced UK-Tour / Live Fantasy Zone“ thread for some details.
 A Shot on the ticket for the barn in Norwich would be for me around 150-200 £ - but depending how the crunch time looks on screen + rather impossible to predict which ENTRY price would sell out this show.
 Can easily find more places to shot a ticket, so no barn would not hurt me.

            Btw
 I don’t think the final Entry-Price to the Waterfront Barn would be 1010,10£ - who are those buyers - intercontinental fans ? Maybe some would buy such a overpriced ticket - but the majority can read and is not crazy enough 💡 see the notice next to the current price;) that’s a key detail of the whole strategy to hold all decent enough. You can know what’s going on…
 That one person who bought a Brixton academy ticket for 400£ should also made one of the crazy actions. But who knows. Tour alone would be good for a view on that ticket sales strategy and the fan online scenario till the showdays.

 Whilst valid, I have a feeling that this band are not short of a few quid. Yes they tour to make money, but they'll be doing just fine i'm sure. The energy coming from them from the stage told me that they were absolutely in the element and loving every minute in playing to the crowds they got.Lerxst1992 said:prl said:

 There was even more energy last night. I know he does it all the time but EV said at the end something about that they will be back (I got the impression he meant Europe), so hopefully not waiting as long for the next tour as some of the doom mongers here talk about.pdalowsky said:

 Exactly! In a dream world they'll be back next year, but I doubt it. Allready looking forward to Euro tour 2026! Missed out when Berlin got cancelled, but this was pure bad luck with the illness...I'm glad that it seems they've got some sort of new found energy.drfox said:

 While that is pretty shocking, it also follows 3 cancelled shows and some major uncertainty that this show would even happen. Adjustments were made, and it seems the show was exciting and appreciated by (almost) all in attendance, including the band.Lerxst1992 said:prl said:
