I remember convenving all our local bands to explain how we needed to raise average ticket price from £6 to £8-10 for weekend shows and the outcry it caused in 1999. I have no issue paying £20-30 to see a band. I DO take issue with arena/large venues charging £100+ to see anything

Lovely stuff. Would be great to see it return still next year, regardles of Glastonbury, which most people won't be at anyway.

Please read the thread. There is nothing like hearing a song that stops you in your tracks. Except seeing a support band live at a smaller venue and be blown away. That happened last night seeing Kris Barras. The support band was 10 Years. Amazing. Prev. great support for Kris Barras was Dan Byrne.
