    I was actually quite annoyed when i got my tickets! I got 2 over the phone and 2 on the net all from ticketmaster. 2 were for pitch standing which cost £135 but the other 2 were for RESERVED SEATING (MIDDLE AND UPPER TIERS) and cost me £189 ???? Cheeky !!!!!!s! I know they are reserved seating but come on, massive difference in cost?! Anyways cannot wait to go i am so excited!

    Don't kid yourself that gigs are not about making money for the promoter - promoters margins are slim (no, really, they are usually under 10% with a huge amount of cash at stake) so if the artist's fee and production mean they have to charge differential pricing...well, people seem to pay it...
