So many performers charge what the market will bear. Tickets for the Cream reunion shows a few years ago were $300+ per. IMHO-that's absurd.

Anymore, I prefer smaller acts in smaller, more intimate venues. I'd prefer to not have to watch the performer on a "big screen" in some massive room to see their facial expressions while they play.

I have heard that Talking Heads are recording together. Haven't heard if they'll tour or not. You might also check out some of the recent stuff David Byrne recorded with Brian Eno.
