Re: What would it cost today........

To see Queen today (if Freddie was still with us) would cost about £60-£80, i saw loads of bands in the 70s and probably didn't pay more than £3 for a ticket to see any of them. i used to save the ticket stubs but foolishly sold them all to a collector for about a fiver around 20 years ago.
I saw many of the top bands when they were in there prime including AC/DC, Rush, Sabbath, Lizzy, Priest, and indeed Queen.

Surely more than that ??

We paid £75 each to watch Stevie Wonder then £80 each to see Barry Manilow ... that was about 10 years ago

Queen at Manchester appollo 1975....bohemian rhapsody was at number 1 at the time, the stubs above are not mine however, just wanted to show how ticket prices have increased completely out of proportion from 80p to £80

That was very cheap even at the time, I presume they had signed up to appear months earlier.
