After the cost for the flight, it hardly matters how much the concert ticket is.

willing to pay? Isn't he (and PJ) supposed to pay for free? He's rolling in money he can cover all the expenses himself. Why should anybody pay to see him/them? Is not like they/he are/is one of those established acts with the average ticket price around 80$.

I'd happily pay up to $150 AUS ($140 US) to see the band/Ed, that's about $40 or so more than when PJ played in 2006.
I'm by no means wealthy (ha!), just weighing up my upper limit as to what I'd be willing to pay.
You US folk bitching about paying $65 to see Ed (almost half of what it cost to see Pearl Jam for me last tour!) makes me wonder how much it cost for you guys to see 'em in 2006 (or any other comparable big-name rock band).

I think the People Bitching are fricken crazy.. GIve me a break
Pearl Jam plays a 2hr 15 min - 2hr 45 min show basically every night they play and we see them for what between $60-$70 bucks... no other bands gives us our moneys worth like that... BRUCE used too... but not any more... its more expensive... u2 is a joke & the older classic rock bands you cant see for less that $100 and thats for bad seats... that Joke of A Van Halen Reunion tour cost over $100 too... Pearl Jam is the best live band in the world, they are unpredictable and they have a loyal fan base that would pay alot more to see them and they dont take advantage of it ... And lets not even start to go over the fact that we can buy these 2.5 hr shows for fricken $9.99 5 minutes after the show on the TenCLub Site... WIth all that Said... HOW CAN ANYONE BITCH ABOUT PAYING $70 TO SEE ED or the BAND>.. Lets find something a little more worth while to talk about!

well Mr. Loyal and Appreciative Fan, that's a very passionate view of the 65$ tickets, but this thread is for ridiculous prices scalpers and brokers at charging for the sold out solo shows coming up, as indicated in the first post. Please pay attention.

I think the higher i saw was approaching 900$ but that was before the actual sale.

hahahaha... i like that loyal and appreciative was probably a little overboard... get my point though
Hey, Im in MASS so im still kind of bitter that this is only a "West Coast" Tour... I much prefer the full band but I would still love to see Ed in a small place hangin out playing like that...
