Hmmm...

Looks like the whole stadium pretty much diamond/199 shmackos...

Few "BYO binoculars" called "gold" and "silver"

He's a once-in-a-lifetime musician, but that's a lot of dough...

I don't care how pricey - this is one opportunity in my lifetime to see an idol & inspiration. They don't come along often. This bloody better be my birthday present *cough* !!

word Blush. when something like this comes along you have to shelve the expense angle and just go otherwise you will regret the rest of your life.

i didn't go to Herbie Hancock and I'm still kicking myself.

The "retail" prices aren't bad... it's all these pre-sale offers that are too expensive.

$200 for Diamond isn't too pricey, and I'll see you guys there ;)

BU the crew. have not laughed so much in ages. mrj vs GM hilarity = good times

yep. that was so worth the wait. I had my doubts that he could still hit the high notes, but holy shit he showed me!

Had crappy seats but couldn't help but rock out hard. The oldies in front of us even kicked in with some pretty serious power-swaying when he played I Just Called.

Def. in the top 10 gigs I've seen.
