    One of his American dates is $82 per ticket. Thats pretty expensive for a concert on home soil.
    Don't be surprised if he rips off the Europeans aswell.

    just over £40 sterlings to see Tom Waits, thats not bad, ticket prices in the US can be fairly feisty. As regards ripping off Europeans, I'd say they'll be a stark markup in ticket price between anywhere else in Europe and Ireland.

    "he rips off"..would say the label and promoters would have a fair say on the price of tickets

    ...and surely Tom ultimately has the final say. If he suspects the promoters are taking too big a chunk and his fans are being ripped off, then at the least complain, at most threaten to not play.

    true true, the murky world of music business....the bigger the label, the bigger the sh!t

    Stuart Clark was on Matt Cooper talking about the tent a week or two ago - apparantly, it's been designed by Tom Waits himself, with the design based around his last album.

    (Not that I've any interest in seeing the oul growler!)
