And yeah, it kind of puts it into perspective when you can go to a gig for $16 without any of the hassle!
I'm not sure I've ever gone to a show that cost $90 (£70). Expensive tickets like that usually mean it's at some awful venue where you can barely see the band. Most shows I go to are in the $10-$25 range.
