All those guitars don't restring themselves...
I saw Bonamassa in Shepards Bush once for £60, it was so packed I just about got in the door and could only see the bass players arm occasionally and the brass players head
I could certainly hear Joe's guitar though ..it was stupidly louder than everything else
Joe Bonamassa is the other way round and in no way justifies the ticket price, as far as I can tell. 165 is a hell of a lot of money to see some bloke play some blues. I only paid 90 to see Clapton a few years ago
Tickets were a fair bit less.
JB not worth £165 to me
However when trying to book tickets I couldn't book through the venue but through a company called Ticketmaster.
...it suggests that you have never heard of them, in which case yes, you are a 'bit' out of touch
That does seem hella expensive though; is that before or after booking fees etc?
I saw John Illsley on Sunday night for £22 a ticket including fees. Small venue, and superb musicians. Much rather do that than pay the kind of money you pay for Bonamassa.
Discovered this place in West London, only 15 minutes on the Tube:

Got some quite good acts coming up.

They seem to be a law unto themselves.
My Trading Feedback | You Bring The Band
Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youWhilst I would like to see Bonamassa, I'm not paying his ridiculously high prices. Beck on the other hand is several levels up the guitar god scale, yet more far affordable.
As they say, go figure.
Paid £50 for Gregory Porter at the Royal Albert Hall, which I didn't think was too bad...bearing in mind the artist and the brilliant venue.
RE: Joe's loud guitars, a mate went to see Nile Rodgers a couple years ago & said the same thing.
£32 to go see Camel - well worth it.
