Rip-Off Artists

Here’s a list of the top ten acts who charged the highest average ticket prices in 2024:

1. U2 — £287
2. Garth Brooks — £285
3. Lady Gaga — £252
4. The Eagles — £239
5. Bad Bunny — £228
6. George Strait — £227
7. The Rolling Stones — £226
8. Dead And Co — £225
9. Los Bukis — £210
10. Sting and Billy Joel — £191

And in case you were wondering, Taylor Swift came in 17th, with an average ticket price of £163.

I wouldn’t pay a single dollar to see any of them.

I have a couple of Eagles albums (Hotel California and The Long Run), and one Rolling Stones (Greatest Hits Vol 2), and not a single album of all the rest.

I have yet to listen all the way through a U2 album, but I did quite enjoy a couple of The Police ones (but never bothered to buy any).

And I’ve never even heard of Bad Bunny and Los Bukis.
