MattFromNYC said:what about the 70 dollar shirts? FREEKIN COTTON SHIRTS.
tix.. 45 dollars? what? for behind the stage or nose-bleed seats?
what about the 400 dollar GA ones.. or the 200-300 dollar ranged ones in decent seated areas?
wtf????
................
why do these tickets cost so much? because of the venues? and their size? or what?

U2 are not responisible for food, bevrages and parking, that is down to the people who own the arenaGen. Chat said:
Short answer, because they like the Stones are a top tier act and they can get away with it. U2 sold out their shows in a matter of minutes at what I consider excessive prices while bands like NIN played the same venues half empty when the top ticket was only $45. U2 merchandise is priced a bit more than other acts but t-shirt prices and everything else associated with the show (food, beverages, parking, etc.) is too high in my opinion.

not in all cases, but in most.
and this isn't only u2's problem, a lot of artists charge way too much.
good thing almost all the bands i like cost no more than 20 bucks to see.
