I wouldn't pay more than 40 quid to see a top band.

You won’t be seeing any top bands then. In fact doubt you’ll get to see many mid tier bands for less than £40. Bands that play 2/3000 capacity venues are charging around £40/50.

I can't think of anything that's worth it. I paid £10 for a Bowie Ticket in 83...in today's money that's about 42 quid. That's what i'd pay to see him if he was able to reform.

Fair enough, I enjoy going to see bands, though in general avoid the big arenas,and hate stadium gigs. I prefer smaller venues 2000 ish but accept most bands I go and see will cost me anywhere from £35 up to £60, so its either pay it or don’t go. Any bands that play the COOP will be charging £80 upwards, I noticed the other week Stevie Nicks at the Glasgow Hydro was £200 and up I wouldn’t pay that but it was just about sold out.

At least you don’t need to queue for the bogs, it’s the future.

That's nothing. Yesterday at Wembley there was a small stall selling rum and coke.
The 'rum' was in a plastic carton that had a pump mechanism. The barman pumped around 5 lots of rum into a large plastic container and then filled it with shite coke. He then poured into plastic glasses filled with ice. They were charging £8.50. There is no way you got a proper shot of rum. One bloke asked for no ice and they refused to serve him.

There was a queue !!!!
