I want to go to a concert but I’m too cheap.

I won't go above $6. Sadly, this limits me to high school theater shows...

Many hundreds...I can't remember exactly. It's been a while since there was a show worthy of plunking down a pile of money...plus things have been too tight to even consider it.

I think $250 but that included a meet and greet.

I think I paid $65 for Jackson Browne tickets and my girlfriend dumped me the next day.

That's because you bought her Jackson Browne tickets.

It's for the best that she dumped you then. Yacht rock rots your brain.

That sucks. You should have looked around for the friends that you used to turn to to pull you through.

I thought you were in your late 20s/early 30s. No one under 50 identifies Jackson Browne as their favorite musician.

You dodged a bullet.

Probably her dad's or grandpa's favorite musician. Going to something that she used to do with her dad reminded her how CH's not her dad, hence the post-show break-up.

I don't remember ever buying tickets above face + fees. Maybe 65 bucks? I've scalped a lot of tickets for way above face.

Yeah, she also liked Dan Fogelberg a lot. I would have not taken her to a Dan Fogelberg concert, though.

EDIT: I think he was dead by then anyway so it's just as well

At first glance I really thought this was a Whistler thread.

I think we paid approx. $450 for 2 tickets to see BTS at Soldier Field. I bet if I added up the prices of all 13 U2 shows I've gone to, it wouldn't come to $450.

What concert are you wanting to go to?

Most I've paid for a ticket was like $200. For the Rolling Stones about 15 years ago. And that was face value. So I felt good about it cuz others were paying twice that on the secondary market.
