    89-139 plus fees.
    Too much for a 90 minute show.

    its funny - the prices cannot be found on ticketmaster event page.
    almost like they are trying to hide them until its time to buy when the panic sets in.

    Would be interesting to compare the prices here vs other venues in Europe

    Edit - not so funny

    Norway tickets starting at 700NOK / 69 Euro
    Denmark tickets starting at 545 Dkk / 72 Euro

    Cant see for Germany of Holland but would imagine it is cheaper again.
    We really are a nation of Saps.

    Ticketmaster do that all the time.
    Panic people on the day when they are available to buy and then listen to the moans from punters afterwards.

    We are a nation of saps for paying the prices but nobody to blame but ourselves.
    If people here didn't pay the prices,the promoters would have to cut them.
    It's the same story every time about it costs more to put the gigs on here due to transport costs, higher VAT etc.

    Presale code seems to be accepted but won't let me actually buy tickets. Anyone else having this issue? Anyone got another code??

    I would love to go to this and see ELO and Dhani.
    But, unfortunately at those prices I'm going to dig my heels in and say no!

    It's awful to see the €100 to see super acts take another jump. I don't go to half as many shows as I used to as a result.

    For those going, enjoy, I'm sure it'll be a great night!....pending the sound engineer is decent!

    Top priced seats were 99 euro plus fees in Oct 2018 ,MCD have whacked on another 40 euro for the gig in 2020.
    A 40% increase .
    Crazy money ,Jeff barely plays for 90 minutes .

    Going to his Belfast gig. I have no idea who Dhani is but it's a voyage of discovery I suppose.

    If you like music check out this thing I'm running. Participation would be appreciated.

    Boardsies decide greatest music album of all-time.
