You all must be living on a remote island somewhere. In 2002, I paid $1600 for two 11th row seats to see Paul McCartney.
$200 is nothing these days.
A friend of mine just went to see McCartney up north. He bought the highest package that he could. It gave him entrance to the sound check and a back stage vegetarian buffet, that Paul "might" show up at, but rarely does. (He didn't) and the show from the third row.
The cost? $1,700 per ticket. Yup... $3400 for him and his wife to see Paulie. Paul was great as usual.
Don't get me wrong, I've seen him six times and would go again if I could get decent seats for a reasonable price. But last time, I paid $300 for two seats eight rows from the very back of the auditorium. I didn't think that it was worth is, but my wife had never seen him before and I thought that she should. Oh yeah, we also had to pay $30 for parking and we had some hot dogs or some thing that cost another $30-$40.
But I would recommend that anyone that hasn't seen him live should really go. It's an experience that you really don't want to miss in your life time.
