You always have to ask if going to a concert is worth it. For the price of one ticket you can buy a stack of CDs (or iTunes/MP3 equivalent) and have the music long after your ears would have stopped ringing from the concert. There are a few groups I go to see when they pass through town, but usually the tickets are in the $10-$20 range in a small club.

A few years back we took the family to see Blue Man Group, 25 bucks a ticket and parking was included.

Worth every penny! One of the Best Live Concerts I've ever seen and I've seen all the big acts (like the WHO and McCartney, Eagles, Elton John, Billy Joel, AC/DC Genesis, and the list goes on and on...)

I would love to go to a Concert that a good new band is putting on but I refuse to pay these astronomically high prices these bands ask for now.

Its beyond insulting... (but in my view so is the price of a movie ticket, especially when I can wait and buy a used DVD of the movie for less than price of one ticket)

I paid the princely sum of $13 to see Jimi. The sad fact is that, despite the fact that I am infinitely more flush now than I was then, there are extraordinarily few acts that would compel me to part with that $13 today...
