Seen the prices of tickets of his tour? Shocked

Ouch....

Well he''s not coming to the US so I can feel better about it... Some of the prices seem on par for what concert tickets are here. I wonder if its insurance requirements driving the prices up? ...

Following the link, he's got a bunch of US concerts and all are very reasonably priced?

I've been to some of his mega-concerts from decades gone by. Not only were they free to attend, the most grandiose spectacles imaginable, registered in the world record books, but he also passed out free CDs to everyone in the audience, and also signed my CDs and was willing to talk to me about instrument design stuff even though I was nobody.

So I guess I feel he isn't trying to stick people here? Concert tickets are from fifteen to forty bucks... I think that's not a lot it's like a small fraction of the cost of a Katy Perry ticket and she's no one...

I saw he added US tour dates. The prices are pretty good compared to others. I've been on the fence about going. I read that the concert centers around the new collaborative stuff he did. I bought both of those CDs as well as Oxygene 3....Electronica 1 & 2 are still growing on me. O3 was strange at first but I like it now. Odd thing was the first disk I got was defective, everything was distorted. I was like, 'wtf? Where's his head at?'. Then got a replacement and it was much better.
