Maybe I am a Boomer...

Tried to get Kid Rock tickets for LCA in July. Cheapest I could find were $300 each so ended up passing. WTF? It's not that I don't have the money, its just is Kid Rock worth a $700+ night with my wife? I love the guy, but that is a LOT.

So maybe I am a boomer. I don't know...

The same thing happened with Blink 182. As someone who likes concerts and cheaper concert tickets, LCA is really screwing it up for music fans. Once enough people skip on going to shows, they will readjust the prices.

My problem with a lot of these "experience" things is that they're way off what a sensible person should pay.

Like why would you spend $1000 for a few hours of fun? That's very expensive in dollars per fun.

I'm with ya ... can't justify that kind of cash

I can't understand why anyone would want to go see Kid Rock in general.

Outside of detroit hes not a big deal

Last summer he played in Cincinnati , it was under $100 for 2 tickets the day of the show . To me that's fair to sit though a Kid Rock show

In my opinion single artist concerts are priced FAR above what anyone should have to pay. I went to Linkin Park/Incubus concert before they tore down the palace. It was $65 a ticket (Bought in advance). Yet my "Louder than life" 4 day wrist band was $350(Bought in advance).

I get that they've got their expenses and have to make money. But I think there's a point where they've got to say "Hey, lets put 3 or 4 more artists on stage" to split the expenses, and cut ticket cost (Or make the current cost more realistic)

First show is sold out.
I guess you have to like his music... politics aside I think his shows are great.

I totally agree! It is a good time. Just a few years ago you could get $20 tickets all day at Pine Knob! He even bragged about selling the hill at $20! Crazy.

I'm so old I can remember lawn seats at Pine Knob were $15.00
