    The tickets only cost £40 originally. I swear people just buy them to sell them again on ebay to make a quick profit. I would have gladly paid £150 for 2 tickets to see them as they are fantastic (promised myself I would see them live after seeing them on TV @ Glasto) but anything more would have been madness.

    Haven't been to a concert in a few years - it was the Stereophonics. Definitely seeing Snow Patrol in March, hopefully The Killers next month and maybe Pink at the O2 in Dublin in November.
