Hope, I think that's pretty much a universal thing

Not sure what show you're looking at, but most of the shows I've checked out tickets are between $30 and $100

Go look at the seats up front for Hollywood Bowl.

If it's just for seats up front, then $140 is a decent price!

No, they're some VIP shit for like $500.

Tip: Become a scalper.

If they even decide to have a GA pit, it's tiny at The Pearl. Venue is configured to have a pit or put in seating. Goof luck getting decent tickets of any sort these days.

So what is the point you're trying to make? Are the $140 seats up front or not?

update: Just had a look - $140 tickets are for Terrace seats at the Bowl, I'd consider them to be pretty damn good and worth $140. There are plenty of cheaper options.

A Perfect Circle formed in 1999 with principal members Billy Howerdel (Ashes Divide) and Maynard James Keenan (Tool, Puscifer) creating a fluid band where line-ups were free to shift with each ensuing album. The band’s 2000 debut album, Mer de Noms, found Howerdel and Keenan joined by Josh Freese (who continues to play with A Perfect Circle as well as a litany of other bands including Devo, Weezer and Sting), Troy Van Leeuwen (Queens of the Stone Age, Sweethead) and Paz Lenchantin (Zwan). A Perfect Circle released Thirteenth Step in 2003, featuring the band’s biggest single to date “Weak and Powerless.” Joining Howerdel, Keenan and Freese for the remainder of the first wave of A Perfect Circle albums and tours were Jeordie White (aka Twiggy from Marilyn Manson) and James Iha (Smashing Pumpkins). The band’s third release, eMOTIVe, arrived in November of 2004 and boasted a wide-ranging collection of covers that reflected the year’s political climate (John Lennon’s “Imagine,” Marvin Gaye’s “What’s Going On” and Devo’s “Freedom Of Choice” were amongst the songs included) as well as a pair of original songs penned by Howerdel and Keenan (with a co-writing credit for “Passive” going to Nine Inch Nails’ Trent Reznor). A self-imposed hiatus ensued shortly thereafter and lasted until the fall of 2010 when A Perfect Circle announced fourteen live dates (which sold out in under one minute) in the Western U.S and a performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. A Perfect Circle’s current line-up is Howerdel, Keenan, Freese, Iha and Matt McJunkins (Ashes Divide, Puscifer).

Had GA for APC and had seats for Tool, both 2 night shows, and enjoyed the seats more. Now I enjoy Tool a little bit more than APC and also was super sick on the second night of APC's show, but seats are better. Haha

264zn wrote:^Nice one. I was struggling to get anything, but thankfully I also woke up my wife to get on and try and she ended up with section 203 row T seats for the second night at The Pearl, so stoked with that! Going to make our trip round the states that much better...thanks to follow FEiers for the feedback on the venue too
