Here's a little blurb:

Veteran rock band Bon Jovi is ready to begin a fresh new tour in 2011, and next year Bon Jovi tickets on the TicketNetwork exchange will be slightly cheaper on average than they were for the 2010 tour.
According to TicketNetwork data at the time of this release*:

The current average price of all tickets for next year's Bon Jovi tour is $157. The average price this year was $175.
The current lowest average ticket price for next year's tour is in Salt Lake City, UT, at $106. During this year's tour, the lowest price was in Cuyahoga Falls, OH, at $120.
The current highest average ticket price for next year's tour is in Uncasville, CT, at $255. For this year's tour, the highest average price was $438.
The venue and city with the most tickets sold for this year's tour is currently the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, PA.
The Live 2011 Tour will kick off on February 9 in University Park, PA. It is currently slated to end on March 25 in Toronto. Following the North American leg of the tour, Bon Jovi will head to Europe.

Average Price for Selected Cities on the Bon Jovi Tour*

City Venue Avg. Ticket Price

Pittsburgh, PA Consol Energy Center $112
Boston, MA TD Garden $140
Raleigh, NC RBC Center $153
Chicago, IL United Center $168
San Antonio, TX AT&T Center $178
*As of 11/18/2010 10:00 a.m. EST. Prices may fluctuate based on market demand. Data for multi-concert cities is combined and averaged.

Ok, the 1 city not on that List is Las Vegas which they played in 2010 & will play again in 2011.  I will attest (as will my credit card) that 1 ticket in Las Vegas  which is one Row off the floor on Richie's side was about $20 less than 2 tickets to see them 2 nights before in San Antonio (8 rows from the circle).

Of course my ticket in April was $190 after all the fees and surcharges and the Digital Copy of the Circle you HAD to buy if you wanted to buy pre-sale seats through TicketBastard.

There were not a lot of Fan Club seats available and Las Vegas is still a premium city with all the High Rollers (and whale's) that ask for comped tickets.  So the MGM gets a ton of tickets to provide to their hotels to make their high dollar gamblers happy, and us poor people have to pay for our seats.

God Bless America.
