Prince goes to show that there's no real reason to charge over $100 for concert tickets.

Celine shouldn't be charging $137 considering she's playing the same venue for 3 years, if you're going to do that many shows, charge it a little cheaper so new people will actually go see you.
Madonna's concert tickets are the worst, $174 average? Yes, she is probably the closest thing my generation has to a Beatles or Elvis, but $174 is just insane |
