Gary Bongiovanni Ticket Quotations

McCartney and the Stones alone really helped drive up ticket prices.

I think there's a pretty widespread understanding now that we've pushed the upper limits of the ticket price and the public has pushed back.

That's very good business. Bruce Springsteen is grossing a similar amount of money, but he's playing smaller places at twice the ticket price.

You don't normally see three huge acts like that out touring in the same year. McCartney and The Stones alone really helped drive up ticket prices.

We keep pushing the envelope on ticket prices and I think it's finally gone beyond the pale a little bit. Consumers are voting with their wallets and they're keeping them in their pockets.

Ten or 20 years ago, the acts that sold a lot of records were also the big concert ticket sellers. You don't see that correlation today.

It makes sense to try to take care of your loyal fans, but it's a fine line before that moves over into just a way to up the ticket price.
