Bottom line is this…. make ticket prices a reasonable amount and don't sell before public sale (your scalper problem goes bye-bye). You know as well as I do that U2 has over half the arena sold before any "normal people" have a chance. Then the tickets I have a chance at are astronomical. If U2 wants to go on tour and make a million for each of them, they can easily achieve this with an avg. price of $40 a seat. They of course choose not to. Which in turn causes me to choose otherwise. This is the same guy who speaks wisdom out of one side of his mouth, and charges $160 bucks a ticket out of the other. Yeah, Yeah… I know… "people are willing to pay that…" My retort: sure they are… under the very capitalist system that he routinely takes aim at.
