don't know.
But I meant the people at Billboard. Whatever you think about Springsteen's show – 'the greatest show on earth' – no way!

BTW I found the Billboard story with the quote. Funnily enough it was a review of the Hamburg show. I went, and thought that show was just ordinary Bruce, nothing earth-shattering.

I've seen him 27 times by now, I think, so I had something to compare Hamburg to!

I can appreciate the Billboard critic had a different opinion. Maybe it was the only show they saw on the tour, even the first in a long while.

For me, Hamburg was the fourth show within a week. There's going to be somewhat of a diminishing return.

It's the same with the Stones; if I see them three or four times in a row on a tour, by the fourth show I catch myself thinking "I've seen this movie before." That's why in 2022 I spread out my six shows over a longer period.

But by the sixth show in Stockholm it really felt it was enough.

I’m the lonely dude on the other side of the planet, I make complete concerts, and by the fifth or sixth full show ….. I’m looking for different footage, mostly that’s “not” a FIRST EXPERIENCE “ so it may remain intriguing on first view, but a real fan could say maybe “how did I miss that? . Live is the best vantage point of view you’re ever going to get in a concert, as a real fan of a band…. ever

Yes. It's a first world problem for sure. Most of the days of your life you're not going to be at a Stones or a Springsteen (or insert favorite artist here, see: Dylan, Bob) concert. Might as well enjoy it while you actually are at one.

Scored some Golden Circle tickets for the tour thumbs up
First time GC for Bruce, but I am afraid it is less good that the Stones' Diamond Pit, right?!

There are tickets with a marked-up price called "Dynamic" on Eventim or "Platinum" on Ticketmaster, but the price doesn't fluctuate. It's a set price for a ticket "category"/type.

So it's nowhere near as crazy in Europe as it was in the US. There seems to be no algorithm that raises the price according to the (perceived) demand.

Which venue is this? In some places Golden Circle can mean the front of stage area = pit. It will be a lot larger than the Stones' Diamond Pit, though.

Platinum IS dynamic pricing according to TM's own wordage.

Ticketmaster's Official Platinum seat program enables market-based pricing (adjusting prices according to supply and demand)

Stockholm was an easier ticket that I thought. Got plenty of pits for both nights for myself and friends and one leftover. 12 pit tickets in total!

Got Wembley 2nd night rear pitch. Missed out on FOS as they put the tickets on sale with no warning and no presale. At least I had a nearby hotel booked in anticipation. Have 8 months to upgrade my tickets so no need to panic.

Now to get Belfast (hometown show), Cork and Dublin on Monday.
