For internationally recognized recording acts, I would (and have) spent $500/ticket. I saw Genesis on their last tour at $200 per, and the girlfriend dropped $500 per for Elton John's farewell tour. I have no regrets about either.

Last year I saw Cheryl Crow and JJ Grey & Mofro at a weekend festival near Banner Elk, NC. Tickets were $60 to $80 bucks for each and the Airbnb was $200/night. Cheryl was on Friday night, JJ on Saturday night. Aside from a thunderstorm delay, it was an awesome event.

I was trying to figure out the name of a Molly Hatchet song the other day, wound up on their wiki page, and discovered that the entire band is dead. The ENTIRE band. So now with Toby Keith dying (yeah, I'd have paid to see him) it's got me thinking that I better see the bands I like before they're all gone.

As for the Jags, still waiting for my chance on a game. $150/ticket is doable, and I'll probably get my first chance in 2024. Looking forward to it.

And I'll pay admission and parking for just about any air show. They're cheap, but I'd still do up to $100 bucks for the entire event. Hopefully I won't have to.
