Most bands will give their fanclub members the opportunity to get tickets before they are released to the public. (any band selling out arenas will have some type of fanclub)

If people are willing to shell out several hundreds of $$ to see a band play for 90 minutes all the power to them. For me personally, any ticket over 60ish bucks is usually to expensive for me. If I spend 100 bucks on a ticket, 40 for a shirt, 20 bucks on beer, 10 for parking it starts to add up. Even if I am a huge fan of the band I just feel ripped off.

and the the most fun I've ever had at concerts are ones when the tickets were cheap anyways.
