The Price of Concerts

Going to shows in Santa Fe is damned expensive. And it sucks. Lucinda Williams is playing there soon. The cheapest tickets is $36 plus service charge. The closest seats are over $50. People pay $50 or more all the time for shows. Why? Is it really worth it? Are you usually getting music of that quality? I have to think the answer is no.

Here is my list of living people I would pay $50 for.

1. Tom Waits

That is all.
