Not quite $170 worth...

So, last night I went to the Bon Jovi concert - they're probably my favorite all-time band! However, last night left me wanting. I paid a pretty penny to get on the floor for this event, as I thought it would be a time to remember for the rest of my days. My heart was heavy when I saw, just over 1.5 of them playing, they were spent. Granted Richy and Tico gave it their all the whole performance; but, to charge $170/seat and not even give a 2 hr show is not classy.
I once went to an Eagles concert, which cost $125/tic. Now, we thought that was expensive! But, when the first song of the night was Hotel California (no opening act - just Eagles all night!) followed by 3 hours of Eagles classics, I left thinking that I can understand why they'd charge what they did. Last night was not the case....

I probably would have felt I'd gotten my money's worth had the tix been closer to $100. So, the lesson I've learned is that it's just not worth going to conferences that cost more that $100. I mean, if I can't get satisfaction from my favorit band of all time, how's anyone else going to live up to that kind of tag? I'll stick w. their canned music for now, I guess.... :(

Sorry to hear that the Bon Jovi concert wasn't what it was hyped to be. I had read that in the paper and thought to myself, "I wonder if J felt the same way the reviewer in the SUN felt?"

I guess I have my answer now, lol
