Springsteen ticket prices arouses reactions – NRK

Adele, Justin Bieber, Iron Maiden, Rihanna and Muse are among the artists who hold concerts in Norway this year, but all offer cheaper tickets than the boss himself, Bruce Springsteen.

Yesterday clear of 66-year-old will guest Ullevaal stadium on June 29 with the E Street Band, and at Ticket must out with NOK 1,500 for the best seats, while the seats cost 1000 and a standing further away stage costs 800 kroner.

Hans-Olav Thyvold is a big fan of Bruce Springsteen and even has written the book “Bruce Springsteen – the last American.” He had not been joined fares when NRK called but liked them mildly not.

– I reacted well primarily that it was Bruce Springsteen, who has profiled itself very often in his career on hold ticket prices down, he said.

– nail in the coffin

According Thyvold these fares another nail in the coffin of rock-and-roll, which increasing numbers of older artists should milking the last remnant of their career.

– Rocken is pretty stone dead but Bruce Springsteen is nowhere near the worst. Guns N ‘Roses will have 2000-2500 kroner for their tickets on the US tour. God knows what they should have if they are going to Norway, says Thyvold.

Both Rihanna and Iron Maiden requires more than Springsteen for the best tickets, but also offer cheaper tickets than the 66-year-old American.

Springsteen, who has built a career on portraying the daily lives of ordinary workers, meetings opposition from “their own.”

Labour Politician Jan Bøhler have a huge commitment to cultural activities in the district Differences in Oslo. He says that he has met many people who will be very disappointed with the high ticket prices.

– I think it’s sad because I know many young people who like Bruce Springsteen and that should have been on concert with him, but that will not be able to get there, he said.

– I hope really that Springsteen does not know about it themselves. That there are others who will make money; those who make arrangements and the limits and the economy around his concert, said Bohler.

Not surprised

Roar Bakken is behind the Norwegian fan website springsteen.net, and if he secures a ticket to the concert at Ullevaal, it will be his 49. Springsteen concert.

– I think that those who have fancy Bruce Springsteen tickets have some expectations and know what they can get at a concert with him. So get one rather then choose ticket then.

Tickets for the concert will go on sale Thursday next week. Concert organizer Live Nation would not comment on ticket prices.
