What dawns on me about seeing all these fab bands and the gigs that other folk have been to, is the cost of going to a gig. It makes my blood boil when you see an overrated old slapper like Madonna charging a 3 figure sum for one f*cking ticket when most folk I know who have seen her reckon it's all synched and very little live. The spontaneity of live performances is what makes a gig great, along with talent of playing live, not perfectly choreographed prancing and miming to piped music. Give Kylie her due, her f'cking voice sounds like nails down a blackboard to me, but at least she doesn't overcharge her fans for gigs.

Same with the Police, I can't believe the prices they charged for the reunion tour, and knowing that demand would be huge, charged £50 to join a club where you would get advance notice of tickets. Gordon Sumner, you are a greedy, albeit talented, self-whoring publicist who is not short of a few bob. I hope your next album of "Tree Pipe Cantatas with Malayan Dwarf Tribesmen" bombs like a b'stard.

Hats off to bands like Muse and Radiohead - they could both fill stadiums several times over but keep tickets at a realistic price...

I beg to differ about more money than sense, live music is my passion.
Some people like to spend their money on smart cars or other hobbies, I like to go to concerts.

I saw jet just after they came onto the UK scene, they were very good, but lacked material. I'm sure they would do a much better show now.

BTW did I mention that I met Thunder at one of their after-shows :PDT_Xtremez_28:

OOOH you know how to hit where it hurts!!
Well who knows what the future holds though - see they have limited the Meet & Greet passes now though - so more tricky these days!!

And the more money than sense was tongue in cheek - if you can do it, fair play to you.
My live experiences of late have been limited by all the normal rubbish - that WILL change now though!! I have a few years of making up to do - plus my daughter is now of an age where she wants to come with me, so I can take her as an excuse!!!:PDT_Xtremez_28:
