Easy to say when you've got it. No offense, but people in the real world would have to make some significant sacrifices to drop that kind of money on a concert.

Agreed. I saw Live twice, once at the
Tabernacle in Atlanta and once at one of the coolest venues I've ever seen - the
Sloss Furnaces in Birmingham. Both were small venues and both shows were awesome. The one in Birmingham was open, i.e. the "building" was only tall support beams with a roof on top. It was a beautiful night and a great show.

I used to produce concerts. Sucks having a seat when you previously had all access passes.
Yeah, same here about buying airline tickets. When I was an airline employee, it was awesome to be able to hop a flight anywhere in the world for basically free. No more!
