Cheap concert tickets on the horizon for 2011


Los Angeles: - Concertgoers patients from high ticket prices, there must be some extra pocket change to rattle rock and roll in the new year.

The 2010 is difficult for businessmen ceremony rising prices and the many fans at home. Promoters now say they plan to show more favorable in 2011. But they also try to get more T-shirts and other merchandise to be sold to compensate for the lost revenue.

Item last summer, usually in the charged time of year, and set the prices too high, despite a slowdown in the economy. Managers and promoters believe the fans would like to pay for one or two concerts they see on average each year.

Instead, many have stayed at home and canceled dozens of programs. Many of the places are filled with places with fire sale prices.

Now, instead of the charge drop in very early and presentation at a later time, promoters say they are the cheapest tickets to go and since the beginning, and partly because they know a lot about business as usual, will be spent on beer and tchotchkes on arrival.

ZZ Top, for one, is expected to arise under the average price of $ 2,010 55. And some tickets going for as little as $ 10.

"It is time to return the value," said Carl Stubner, Director of the rock group with a long beard from the state of Texas. "We will find other ways to earn money."

It's not every business will be cheap - a trick even the fonts that were sold tickets for 2011 to about $ 80 in costs. Fans should be hot performers, including Justin Pepper and Lady Gaga does not expect a lot of break to get it.

Neil Diamond, for example, who continues his return to New Zealand in February, said he would like that ticket prices to crash, but could not because of the volume of production.

"If the show grows, and gets more costly, so that translates to some extent in the price," said The Associated Press. "If you're just on the guitar and it would be a lot simpler, but then I want to put 50 people out of work."

In general, however, more than ever, artists take to the streets of the fall of CD sales. With more tickets for sale, and consumers are still pinching pennies, prompting the share price.

Concert attendance 12 percent in the first half of 2010, compared to the same period last year, according to trade magazine Pollstar. He said the concert promoter in the world's largest, Live Nation entertainment company, that participation from July to September fell 16 percent from last year, even after it cut fees and prices for dozens of acts, including Rod Stewart.

"It's just too expensive," said Michael Nemcik, who lost his job as a broker in the stock market in 2009 and now works a waiter in Los Angeles. He went on for dozens of concerts in 2010, about half as much as a year ago. Pay more than $ 200 for access to good seats to see the full circle in November is just too much.
