Ticket prices - What a rip off

[rv360]

 I paid roughly $75.00 for a ticket to the BSMF, where John Mellencamp headlined last Saturday. John Mellencamp and his band were amazing, and everybody I was with agreed that his performance alone was worth the entire ticket price.

Well worth it! Had front row for both Chicago shows, 6th row for the Morris. Got a wink from John and 2 guitar picks from Andy!

That's how I feel.  If he's touring near me, I don't care what he charges.  Neither of us (John or me) is getting any younger; so, the ticket price is less important to me than location and date.

Do you think they're charging more for tickets now because record sales have dropped so much?  I mean, the artists can't be making as much money from 99 cent tracks on itunes as they can from selling a 16.99 CD, right?
