The high price of tickets (and associate ripoffs like booking fees, handling fees etc) is just one of the reasons why I've pretty much stopped going to rock concerts. I'd add that I also don't relish being herded about like cattle by uppetty bouncers half my age. Or those bastards who do my eardrums in with piercing whistles. Or concerts that start so fucking late that I've got to spend the concert price again to get a cab home.
£60 to see three fifths of the Moody Blues? No thanks. I'd rather stay at home and hear those stunningly engineered seven LPs from 'Future Past' to 'Sojourn' on my stereo.
