Britney Spears, New Kids on the Block, and the Jonas Brothers have also sold a lot of albums. That doesn't mean much.
I don't mean that as a knock on Coldplay, since I don't know much of their music.

I think those prices are ridiculous  $54.85 will obviously be for LAWN seats. Once you add fees and tax, you could be looking at up to $150 for a really good seat. I'd love to go, but I can't think of any of my friends that would be willing to cough up that kind of cash for a concert...so it looks like I won't be going!

That's OUTRAGEOUS! I paid less than that to see them in PHILADELPHIA!  I don't know if I could justify spending that much either given my impending relocation to such an expensive area.

If David Gilmour goes on tour one more time before he turns 70 I will make sure to secure the 200 per ticket it will take. After viewing his last tour Via DVD I would just have to go, the performance was just awesome

I used to pay $27-$29 to see the Grateful Dead before Garcia passed away and would compalin because it added up after 20 shows a year, can't imagine seeing that many shows a year now at those prices.

I still have a ticket stub (Ticketron...remember them??  ) for the band "Yes". It's marked "15E" which meant 15 rows back from the stage, & dates from the late 70's/early 80's....
It's cost........$7.00!!!!  
The times they are a-changin'......
