The Bon Jovi ticket rip off


A ticket for the Bon Jovi concert costs $350-$500 at the Hiram Bithorn. In Milwaukee, a seat similar to the $500 ticket costs $80.(www.ticketmaster.com)
The local promoters with their "patriotismo" claim were able to prevent the Choliseo administration from producing concerts at good prices. So instead we have local promoters ripping people off.Amazing.

Thats not correct! If you want to purchase a vip package that comes with a backstage laminate to the VIP tent with free alcohol and a ticket to the after party, then its $500, or $350 with no afterparty. Upfront tickets start at $225 for good floor seats, so if you are going to tell us something, make sure your facts are correct first please.

You are also comparing a full concert at the Hiram to a small scaled down concert in Wisconsin. The show here in PR will be a full blown Bon Jovi production, one that we should all be proud to see, especially after 20 yrs of not coming here. Its also a festival featuring many other acts, and I have heard from my sources that they are getting ready to announce another big act to go on before Bon Jovi, maybe a All American Rejects or Maroon 5. Either way, show your support for the guys.

Proud? De Bon Jovi?? Porque????? Que ha hecho el por este pueblo, o por el de el, o por la musica en general?? O deberiamos estar orgullosos de que su tour hace un stop aqui porque uno de sus discos fue distribuido exclusivamente por Wal-Mart??

Love, love, love Bon Jovi. I'm happy they are coming. Can't wait for tonight! Saw them in 2003 and it was INCREDIBLE! Best show ever. I do agree the prices are way too high.

It was 2004 not 2003. It was the Bounce Tour
