Pricing is going to be interesting next tour. I don't see U2 doing arenas in the US. Playing 2-4 nights (back to backs) in major cities doesn't make sense for them at their age when they can play a stadium and draw 40,000+ every show. Some of these new stadiums are dying to host a concert production like U2. Last time U2 did a stadium show in the US (Popmart) most of the stadiums in major cities were dated & have now been replaced with facilites that are super state of the art.
With that in mind if U2 could sell $50, $75, & $125 for a stadium production they would sell a ton of tickets especially based on the Vertigo Tour. That was a hard ticket to get.
I just looked up Madonna stadium tickets and she is charging $55, $95, $165, $350(!!!!).
$350 for Madonna?
Does she sing "Like a Virgin" straddling your face for that price?
