At the end of the day they’ve refused all calls to come back over the last 15 years so the only way they would do would be for silly money and I’m afraid that’s reflected in the ticket prices.
I’d be more inclined to ask why the likes of Bruce Springsteen and Taylor Swift charge so much when they’ve never been away and pretty much tour constantly.
I’ll add that this doesn’t mean I’m happy paying these prices especially when I have four to shell out on but if that’s the only way to get them back then so be it.
Last night I watched the start of Liam’s performance at Reading earlier this month. He was bloody awful. Some might not have liked his voice in the first place, others would argue that he had a certain unusual way and sound but whatever your opinion he used to sing. Now he just wails. I think I’d rather go to live Noël Gallagher’s HFB.
BTW, I bought all the Oasis albums within a month of their release so it’s not as though I don’t appreciate them. I just think that it will now be cringeworthy.
and just think, standard Knebworth tickets were £22.50. Deary me!
It was almost 30 years ago. Average house prices were under £60k and a ticket for the Glastonbury festival was £70.
Average wages have basically doubled since 1996, whereas the tickets are 6 times more expensive.
You could argue it's because in the 90s artists made money from physical media etc too, whereas now the money is all in the concerts.

This isn't a hidden fact, it's common knowledge regards bands and money. Everything has increased exponentially irl too... other than wages.
Was going to go to the largest waterpark in France today (https://oglisspark.fr/) but decided not to as it’s cold and rainy. Ticket prices have increased by over 10% since last year!

They haven't announced when the pre-sale will be, but the assumption is that it would need to be tonight given general sale is 9am tomorrow.

Is it Ticketmaster?
think more dates will be added....
Not going to bother with initial general sale, not worth the aggro, will wait for the inevitable 7/8 extra dates at Wembley to go on sale.
