    Ticket prices (generally) I can cope with - if I know the face value of the ticket, I can make a decision on whether or not that artist is worth that much of my hard-earned.  Given that I really don't like massive venues (Wembley Arena is about my limit before I start to feel too detached from the action, particularly if we end up in the gods) mostly the bands I want to see who play venues I'm prepared to go to are "reasonable".

    What really pisses me off is all of the add-on service charges.

    I've just bought Black Stone Cherry tickets this morning, for Wembley later this year.

    Ticket price:  £36
    Additional "service" and "facility" charges:  £7
    And then postage on top. 

    So nearly a fifth of the face value in add-on charges. With four or us going (admittedly only two out of my pocket) it starts to make a difference :/

    Mind, at least with this one they actually will post them. Recently for the Roundhouse and KoKo I've been charged "delivery" for frigging e-Tickets, which really is taking the piss.
