Musician Bruce Springsteen's manager released a statement regarding skyrocketing concert ticket costs, as fans were stunned by the prices.
, Jon Landau, is speaking up about record-high ticket prices for the musician’s 2023 tour.
"In pricing tickets for this tour, we looked carefully at what our peers have been doing. We chose prices that are lower than some and on par with others," Landau said in a statement to"Regardless of the commentary about a modest number of tickets costing $1,000 or more, our true average ticket price has been in the mid-$200 range. I believe that in today’s environment, that is a fair price to see someone universally regarded as among the very greatest artists of his generation.
His manager’s comments come on the heels of fans getting sticker shock last week when attempting to purchase concert tickets to see Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band’s highly anticipated 2023 tour.
