According to Ticketmaster, only 11.8% of the tickets go on the varied price scale, so if you are in the lucky 88.2%, you pay between $60-$400.

This has basically been the case for quite some time.

I paid face. You could toggle off the option to look for "Premium Seats" that had dynamic pricing. There were still several $60-200 tickets available 20 minutes into the verified fan sale.

It's certainly not a good look that the only tickets left for the general on sale are those premium seats though.

So, $95 tickets after fees (assuming face value are still available)?

The hack is to move to the Midwest where there isn't so much demand for a liberal musician.

Got LI 2 and MSG. Not sure if we’ll do one or both but LI tickets were $59.50 before fees and the MSGs were like $250 each (ugh)

The mass of Springsteen fans are in their 50s and 60s. Disposable income. One last ride. They’ll pay anything.

60s and 70s at this point. A 60 year old was only 14 when Born to Run was released.
