My love of soul is known through various interactions with RP/MA but I will always love rock, and Im beyond happy to have blagged two tickets for the 2007 UK tour by RUSH. Just as a compare and contrast over the years, I have a £30 ceiling on concert tickets with two exceptions, one of which is Rush. My Manchester ticket was £167, I saw them on their first UK tour in 77, the ticket was £3
I have a number of tickets from the late 70's early 80's where the price rnages from £3.00 to £10.00 for bands including Floyd, Tull, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Zappa, Hawkwind, Peter Gabriel, Gerry Rafferty, Santana, Grateful Dead and so on.
My general limit is around the £50 mark. I'm making a return to Newcastle City Hall, 45 years after I last attended a gig there in April to see Tull which cost £55 including some mysterious fees even though I booked direct with the venue!
Rush without Neil Peart is simply DawdleQuote:

I have various ceilings, depending on the artist concerned. Chrissy Hind/Pretenders would be 75 euro. This summer we have the 4 tops and Temptations with only Otis Williams of the Temps a surviving original member. I baulked at 66 euros, having paid 40 to see them both in 2007 and even back then they needed the bar stools that were on the stage. I've passed on a fair few gigs where the ticket prices were north of 100 for bands I'd maybe pay 50 for.
