Alright, so I just paid roughly the same price I paid for Muse. Granted, I'll be in section L, dead center, row 41. Not the greatest (my first option was row 20, section G, and although I love Geddy... eh I want to be dead center). For Muse (not at Voodoo), I paid the same price and was in the last row.

 

How long has Rush been around in comparison with Muse? I'm not going to complain.

I've just been to my local and they've doubled the price of Guinness!

Something to do with demand apparently. That and the cost of shipping it from Ireland

I said i'm not paying that much, they said like it or lump it. The working man doesn't deserve a chance to drink his favourite pint anymore

Bastards

Aye,,,, imagine putting up the prices just cause of demand... whatever next

I don't know why the bother shipping to you anyway. Perhaps a lower quality product might be more in line with your willingness to pay.

 

Stupid metaphor, really.

Right I'm off to smoke one of significant others gays, even though I gave up smoking gays years ago, because these ticket prices are upsetting me so much. Then I've got to put the gays on for tea, because junior is coming home from school soon.

I had to read that twice.

 

For a second there I thought you were reverting 'back to homosexual tendencies' so that you could afford a ticket.

I found this on another Rush fan site:

 

QUOTE
Your money lets us tour the world
Your money gets around           
Your money you don't have a choice
Your money lots of pounds
Your money make us feel like kings
Your money buys Al fries
Your money keeps us mighty fed
Your money we won't try           

Waste time pissing people around           
Sometimes Al might wear a rug
Some clown pushes sample buttons
About time that they pulled the plug
Stuff the money in a lorry       
Band should apologise
The usual setlist story
You will crumble at the price

Your money takes us round the world
Your money gives us booze
Your money don't want any fake
Your money then you lose
Your money makes us really cream
Your money buys us meals           
Your money your so easy lead
Your money buys us wheels

Most times Peart stares and glowers
Walking round with just a frown       
Throw you down a stairway
He's no time for clowns
Always writing 'bout religion
Thinking he's real cool
He's so full of fan derision
With his clips and his drum stool

Your money lets us tour the world
Your money love to take
Your money yes we're very shrewd
Your money your mistake
Your money Caravan is bland
Your money we control                 
Your money outlook's pretty bleak
Your money we just stole.

I was a bit shocked at the price of tickets for this tour but was more than willing to pay. My first Rush gig was in 2007 and had to pay through the nose to get tickets after they all sold out.

 

For me, the price of the tickets is not the main issue. It's the scandalous way all the best seats get snapped up days before they officialy go on sale to be touted later for 2,3 or 4 times the price.

 

If I'm being asked to pay 70 odd quid for a ticket to see Rush, the least I expect is a fair chance to buy some good seats when I'm ready and waiting at 9am today. That's the big rip off in my opinion and it's got nothing to do with RUSH. It's the massively corrupt way in which tickets for events are sold in the UK.
