Good guess! Making tickets affordable for all has always been their top priority.

$50.00 even for nosebleeds is cheap if you don't mind sitting up in the clouds.

Not to mention hearing it 30 seconds after it actually happens.

The curmudgeon just deleted my account... Aw, you poor thing, is it "offensive" to call a spade a spade? I called you "a pain in the arse" because you deleted my first post which was not "offensive" at all. Yeah, ticket prices are ridiculous, VIP tickets are f-ucking ridiculous for a so-called "rock show"... deal with it! Why did you delete this post? Is it a Stones board or a takfirist board? And don't try to explain your behaviour by saying "iorr is not a place for people who like to offend others" because I am not a sociopath. Ticket prices are more offensive than my first post. Plus you deleted my posts without thinking more than a few seconds, this is..."rough justice"...

From Glimmer Girl on Shidoobee -she usually has good info. FYI, don't quote this whole thing when responding here, it will screw up the readability:
A Birdie visited and there appears to be four tiers of pricing for most of the shows. There are a couple of exceptions, Columbus might have five price ranges and Milwaukee only three.
All prices could be off by approximately $10-20 and do not include fees.
San Diego P1: $395 P2: $175 P3: $95 P4: $62
Columbus P1: $395 P2: $240 P3: $150 P4: $65 P5: $39
Minneapolis: P1: $390 P2: $210 P3: $150 P4: $65
Dallas: P1: $395 P2: $210 P3: $150 P4: $65
Atlanta: P1: $395 P2: $150 P3: $95 P4: $65
Orlando: P1: $392 P2: $185 P3: $95 P4: $67
Nashville: P1: $365 P2: $185 P3: $95 P4: $65
Pittsburgh: P1: $367 P2: $185 P3: $125 P4: $62
Milwaukee: P1: $395 P2: $270 P3: $94
Kansas City: P1: $346 P2: $270 P3: $150 P4: $65
Raleigh: P1: $350 P2: $270 P3: $150 P4: $69
Indianapolis: P1: $995(?) P2: $302 P3: $119 P4: $77
Detroit: P1: $360 P2: $180 P3: $94 P4: $65
Buffalo: P1: $403 P2: $150 P3: $94 P4: $77
Quebec: No idea.
I have no idea about the Lucky Dips pricing - but suspect it to be around $200 for a pair. Lucky Dip pricing was not listed on the presale and general sale pages for the US and Europe sales in '13 and '14. The Lucky Dip sales had their own sales page.
I do not know where the tiers are located in the stadiums. But here's my guess:
Baseball: P1 is on the field, P2 might be back of the field and most of the lower deck, P3 is upper deck with P4 up really high and far back.
Football: P1 is the field and lower deck sides to at least the 50 yd. line, P2 maybe the back of the field and the rest of the lower deck, P3 most of the upper deck with P4 straight back and high up. Columbus's P5 might be the parking lot.
Marcus Amphitheater - my guess is P1 is at least 1/2 to 3/4 of the amphitheater, P2 is the back of the amphitheater and P3 is the lawn. Indianapolis may have five tiers with an additional tier priced at $400ish.
If you're buying P2 or P3 for a concert with P1's that are less than $390, in most cities, you're subsidizing the elite sitting in the expensive seats. They're getting a $30 or $40 break while the P2 and P3's are picking up the difference. Your friends buying the $350ish's owe you a beer or two for helping them out.
You're not getting in the door for less than $100 (unless you're really lucky at pulling up those 12 rows of $60/70 tickets at the back of the stadium, way up high) and if you want to actually see a stage - not an ant farm, it's at least $350.
I do think there will be flex pricing (fire sales). Whether we'll see sections being repriced twenty minutes into the general sale or it will be two weeks before show time - we'll need a crystal ball.
Good luck in the sales!

Roman Candle, what are you firing on about? Your account is still active, is it not?
We all get posts deleted from time to time...roll with the punches my friend!

If you are right that the P1 are the field and lower deck to the 50 yard line I would be amazed. I really thought like only the first 20 rows or so would be the high dollar seats. If you are correct in your pricing. Then it will be a slow sale for the expensive seats after the inital rush and will make it easier for the real fans to get good seats. Like the $600 in arenas was no rush to get excellent seats. I even traded up after I got mine thru ticketmaster for no charge.
So to me this is bad news / good news and more than likey ticket prices will drop. And hopefully this will scare off some of the scalpers who dont have deep pockets.
