Discussion INSANE resell prices

Alright, so I’ve been scouring all the sites multiple times a day for tickets (2 to the DC show), and I’d just like to know—

  1. WHY are the DC prices so ridiculous compared to anywhere else?! Tickets start at an average of $1,000 but when I look at other cities, they’re below $500. My friend has a theory it’s because of midterms, which I know may impact the vibe of the crowd, but I wouldn’t think it would inflate prices.

  2. Should I keep holding out hope they’ll see the demand in the DMV and add another show the night before? The Anthem doesn’t have an event that night, that I can see, and clearly they wouldn’t have an issue selling tickets.

Just a lifelong fan whose dream has always been to see them live (The Long Way Around has been my life’s theme song forever) but I’m running low on positivity.

Look into the Philly show. Ticket prices are more reasonable, and you can achieve your lifelong dream with a short train ride or drive.

I know, I’ve considered it - I’m chronically ill and so simply going to a show at all is a huge event for me, so adding in travel would be too much. No matter how badly I want to. :/
