Wow, $3500 just for front row tickets and not even a meet and greet!? That's so not worth it. The least they could have done was a MnG to at least thank the fans personally for being able to shell out that much $$$. I mean, who has that much money to throw ay? If that's the going rate for all these top rock bands I guess I need to find me a rich husband. Well, more like rich boyfriend first. LOL.

that's crazy.. Bon Jovi is egotistical, and his ticket prices prove it. I haven't liked him for along time.

I keep getting confused with the Cruefest comment. Hinder wasn't on Cruefest, they were on the Saints of Los Angeles tour. Lol.

And I just joined Bon Jovi's fan club hoping to get decent seats for this new tour but $3500 for front row? Wow, insane! Even crazier are the people who actually pay for them (Bon Jovi has some diehards, man!) Lol.

Oh, Buckcherry also charges $125 but when they're headlining and there's seats, that pretty much gets you front row so it's not so bad if you can afford it. I'll def be doing that next time they come around and aren't with stupid KISS. Lol.

I used to get 2nd row center all the time just by being in the Bon Jovi fan club and standing out overnight for tickets. Now, there's no chance at all. I was a diehard 12 - 15 shows a tour now they'll be lucky if I hit 1 or 2.

Either way, it was still $100 per M&G on top of the ticket! You didn't get anything more than you did with a $35 M&G but I did it anyway so that a friend could meet the band.

yes, I know that other bands cost more than Hinder, but it's all a shame that any of those bands charge that much for 1 concert ticket, it's scalping no matter what comes with it. @papa roach giving a "pre-signed poster"...wtf? they can't even personally autograph something for their fans who paid that much to see them? ridiculous!! I think the only reason that the poster is pre-signed is because they are trying to sell 100 M&G's for each show. I think with the other things that are part of the package, there wouldn't be enough time to personally sign everything. Now when they don't sell 100 for each show, who knows if they'll personally sign stuff instead??

I liked BJ a long time ago..the New Jersey album was my favorite one, but I just haven't thought their music is as good for their last few albums.. I hate seeing bands take advantage of their diehards. It makes me not want to like them anymore. I think the only reason that the poster is pre-signed is because they are trying to sell 100 M&G's for each show. I think with the other things that are part of the package, there wouldn't be enough time to personally sign everything. Now when they don't sell 100 for each show, who knows if they'll personally sign stuff instead?? I didn't know that they were selling 100 for each show , but when I meet bands I like to have stuff signed personally , I would be disappointed to not get something signed in person!

[/quote] Listing 100 for sale and actually selling them are 2 different things. If they don't sell out, I don't know it will change anything as far as personalizing anything?

^^Of course were still friends Jane, sometimes people need to realize though, that bands dont really have a say in how much tickets cost. There are alot of people that have a say in that, lyers, agents, record companies, etc. But the bands always take the blame for ticket prices. It's unfair, but that's how it goes. Now if you're not a fan of the music that's a different thing, I agree that it's not the same as it used to be, but I'm still a fan of it.
