I almost bought tickets to that since they were gonna be in town on my birthday but decided to wait.
Covid hit a month later. Was so glad I didn’t get those tickets. Was gonna be $250 a pop for the cheap seats.
Comment on What Ticketmaster Doesn't Want You To Know: Concerts Were Cheap For Decades

Yea, they eventually did the tour and honored the tickets. I guess $250 isn’t terrrrrrible, when I was looking it was like $250 for essentially nosebleed seats.

I think I might have gone to that… weird I can’t remember but I was an alcoholic so didn’t remember much of those times!
Not sure if it was a tour as such though, well it was British Summer Time Festival in I believe Hyde Park. I deffo saw at least one of them there anyway but I have a feeling it was not actually which would be a pretty damn strong gig for the UK. (I know in America they get a lot more of tours/gigs with lots of big names but it’s quite rare in the UK really).
