Here in Dublin we were charged a total (including Ticketmaster 'service charge') of €137.60 a ticket. That's $215.65 in your debased currency. Would you have gone, at that price? Ha! $85 = €54.23.

It ended up $100 by the time it hit the credit card. But I'm not complaining. I'm a long-time fan, but had never seen him live. His voice is cool on the CDs, but unbelievable in person. He had some fun with some of his songs -- "Hoist that Rag" with a Latin beat, for instance. His last CD makes a lot more sense now that I know how he stomps to the music, bent at the waste with arms outstretched and scary fingers twitching like a deranged conductor. $85?
