Come on, it's nice of you to defent Eddie, but these prices are simply ridiculous.
The Amsterdam theater holds around 2,000 people.
Two nights equals 4,000 fans total in attendance.
That makes a gross of about €380,000 ($500,000) for both nights.
As you wrote, Vedder has expenses, although I can't imagine his crew being very big since it's Ed and his Uke.
But what's left over should be more than enough.

I paid €49 for a ticket for Chris Cornell in Paris in an even smaller venue, one of the best places in the house (2nd row floor seat).
Guess Cornell doesn't need the money that bad... :roll:

Congrats Europe/UK! It's a small solo tour, but I'm glad you guys finally got one.
(And I'm relieved that they haven't announced anything here yet...I'm still paying off PJ20.) :? :lol:

If you already have a paypal account, at least for the US shows, you did not need to fill out a form since all your info is already loaded.

I just bought tix for Brian Jonestown Massacre in Amsterdam (night after PJ -- check 'em out!) for €12.50 per ticket. And that's a whole band. Just sayin'. Congrats to the folks who are going to see Ed. I wouldn't mind checking out one of his solo shows at some point (I'll be in Europe for PJ and could make it happen) but those prices strike me as pretty steep under nearly any circumstances, especially for the people who are going to get stuck way in the back. First ten rows, fine, but man, that's expensive for any show, and really expensive for an EV solo show, IMO. Still cool that he's touring Europe solo and I'm sure the shows will be great. But worth that kind of money? Hmmm, no thanks.

It IS a new tour. Despite what some of our America cousins might think, Europe isn't a part of the USA. Ergo ... new tour.

I have to stick to what I believe and what EV once did and not pay over the odds for a ticket.

Such a pity when a guy does a 360 on his values.



I would assume you mean 180.
