After much thought I bit the bullet last night and bought tickets for Stevie Wonder at the Utilita in Brum.

You might have already heard about the extortionate ticket prices but, in relation to the reported £365 each (£730 for 2) that Ticketmaster are charging I got mine through the Arena and paid much less but still a lot in comparison to some shows we've been to there.

Paul Heaton last year: £34.43 a ticket
George Ezra 2 years ago £72 a ticket.

Note the service charge. Am I paying for the place to be staffed and cleaned afterwards? Paying for the drains to be cleared, weeding the garden?
