I agree it’s too expensive these days but so is everything meaning wages need to be more... it’s a vicious cycle. |
I don't know if it's just me, but it seems concert ticket prices have despite very quickly recently and it wasn't that many years ago when I paid around £30 to see the likes of Foo Fighters, Green Day and Florence + the Machine.
I am seriously thinking about going to see The Fratellis in Newcastle where tickets are only £20 (I think I paid about the same to see Dropkick Murphys in 2014). I know they're not a huge name now, but I would guess he would be hugely entertaining, perhaps even more so than Britney Spears.
