I have already got my disabled /carer ticket for Birmingham.Was just looking at the Nottingham concert prices and saw VIP packages,you get a get a seat on the stage?!Early entrance,tour of behind the scenes,programe and drinks vouchers. Plus some other tat,all for £925, you don't even meet Brian and Roger.At least Kiss give you the works you meet the band ,photos all signed and 10 minutes with the band.Has anybody bought the Queen VIP,i think its a disgrace, Freddie would not approve or John.
If there was money to be made Freddie and John would be most approving.
Just don't buy a ticket if you don't like it. VIP packages are normal these days. Most major band offer them.
I am very happy with my tickets and I am really looking forward to the show,even if I had £925 to pay for a VIP ticket I would not pay.A nice holiday in the sun would be much better.
with no meet and greet im not paying that Price! Queen are the only band that does not have this option so many Classic Great Bands are doing it! practically everyone except QUEEN...Roger are you tired of meeting your Fans ?
while it doesn't specify a meet and greet, theres a backstage tour involved with a trip past the dressing rooms and 9 times outta 10 the host your with gives the dressing room a knock and either Brian or Roger would come out, seen a short clip from Zurich when Brian came out
but yeah 925 is a bit steep I'm doing the 295 one simply because its the only tickets that were left and not going wasn't an option for me
Geez.
I saw tickets starting at $85 at the Hollywood Bowl...for the lawn.
I thought THAT was excessive. Don't get me started about $900 for a "kind of Queen" show.
I'm debating going.
I'm sick of promoters these days - even on pre-sale or day of sale for bigger gigs you can't get a seated ticket anywhere near the stage because they are all reserved for the VIP/Platinum type packages. Whilst stupid people keep buying them they'll keep selling them though.....

^TRUTH!
Also the events are touted as SOLD OUT, when in fact it should be read: "BEING HELD" with all the unsold tickets that appear on the day of the show.
(*THAT'S where you should attempt to purchase close seats sometimes;....but it's all a risk at the loss of the loyal fan)
