Have I missed it?

Is nobody having a rant about Metallica ticket prices?

[christhammer666]

I was on facebook. £95 is a joke. Although if they are playing with avenged sevenfold and gojira that's 3 pretty big bands so that's why its so high
I paid £70 for Sabbath and im paying £70 for maiden thats bad enough

After watching this the other month:

I was quite tempted to go and see them for the first time since the Black album tour.

But f**k paying £90+ for them...

[Woodinblack]

Indeed - they are ridiculous, they should be at least 3 or 4 times more, at that price people might still go!

I was happy to pay for sabbath because it was final tour etc (and SABBATH).

Metallica are money grubbing bar stewards and any love I had for them has sadly dissipated over the years.

[lowhand_mike]

quite tempted by this, havent sen them since i caught them at milton keynes bowl on the black album tour.
Support for this tour is a band called Kvelertak, slightly obscure

[crompers]

Good band Kvelertak, you're sure to enjoy them.

I saw the Maria Schnieder Orchestra, last year. World leading Jazz Orchestra. £15 a ticket. I wouldn't pay £90 to see ANYONE.

[fretmeister]

I'd pay 90 for Hendrix

That would be a f***ing stupid thing to do, he's been dead for ages.

I'm off to see The Tim Garland Electric Band in Cardiff next week - £12.00 a ticket. Bargain.

[Delberthot]

I paid £90 to see Jerry Lee Lewis but that was Jerry Lee Lewis, Albert Lee, James Burton and a whole evening of music with minimal breaks in between and I was 4 rows from the front

[Heathy]

Seems a lot. I didn't go to see RHCP in December for this reason.

However, it's no more expensive than decent tickets for a West End show.

[pbasspecial]

I'm going to see Brian Setzer (stray Cats) for £38 and Richie Kotzen (Winery Dogs) for £20. Much better value!

What's a Metallica?

[Fisheth]

Ninety quid for ANYONE is stupid money unless it's for someone like Prince (RIP) or The Stones.

Highest I've ever paid for anyone was Seventy Five for Maiden, just unfortunate about their support band.

Now has anyone seen that 2K fan package?

[blue]

I paid $330.00 to see The Stones.

Totally worth it for me. Seeing a band you've idolized for over 50 years.

Does it come with a happy ending?

[Thunderbird]

I would not pay £90 to see Metallica I was a huge fan of the stuff they did up until the black album and IMO anything after that is awful so there would be no way I would want to pay to see them to listen to the newer stuff and a few old classics and £90 is way to much but I would be curious to know how much of that £90 the band actually got after everyone else involved took there slice of the pie

[timmo]

I would pay £90 if it was a band I really liked. It is a lot of money, but I doubt there will be many unsold tickets. The most I have paid was £75 for Lionel Richie. I get more upset about paying high admin fees , plus postage for 4 tickets that cost £1,75 each despite them being in the same envelope.
