as a sabres fan i can say that the initial shock of losing,anhw bad this team actually is has worn off. and from here out i hope that we sink to the bottom and get one of the top 3 draft picks. #justbeinghonest

I'd go to van Halen for a much lower price.

Van Halen isn't relavent anymore. They don't write new music. It's a bunch of old people and sorta old people grasping at their fading nostalgia in a confortable setting for way too much money.

Could have been in the top row for $46.

Gotta remember something, the people going to see these "older" bands are those who are more likely to have a little more disposable income.
Hell, cheapest ticks for Eagles for their last tour were $100.
Springsteen charged a fortune and then would not allow the A/C units on b/c he did an acoustic show and didn't want any background noise...in summer.

On the other hand, Johnny Winter and Geo Thorogood were free at Artpark.

it's not even that

some old artists are still great to see live

furthur
neil young
I guess metalica is old now
huey lewis and the news
elton john
alice cooper


but for every old descent acts, there are 100 acts that should be playing at county fairs for free instead of charging $100 a ticket

my 2 cents

I agree with you completly. My point is that with rampant piracy eroding the music industry record companies only make the safest bets. Hence, sending van Halen out on tour for $175 a ticket. Last few years the washed up bands on tour have been way up.

Same reason you also now hear already overplayed 97 rock tunes on 103.3 the edge. It's a safe bet.

I think it's time Pegula did something for the fans who are watching this sorry team go down in flames. Get a regional sports network together so we can tell MSG to shove it in their cornhole. I used to like Craig Carton when he was on WGR back in the day but if I have to hear him say 'Football is a sport played by men, for men' one more time I will surely hurl something through my TV.

i'd say 25-35% are 1st timers trying to see them on possibly their final tour.

The rest are trying to re-live their younger days.

The groups charge that much cause they're greedy and this may be their last payday.

DLR sounds like sh!t now and my main reason for not wanting to go. 80+ to hear that douche, no thanks.

Alot of teams are taking their shots at buffalo now while they are down. WHen we get this thing together this league is (frank)ed. They won't be able to stop Sabres mania in any building in the league.

I've only heard one recent song that was obviously taped on a less-than-high-quality machine. More likely a phone.
Do I expect 80's DLR?
No-
I'm ok with that.
VH's prices are right in line and maybe even lower than market rate.

Why are the Jets fans chanting "Miller"?

if it were Philly or Ottawa I would understand, but WTF? It's like Sabres fans chanting "HARDING." when Minnesota visits. Makes no sense
