MY son and his partner are passionate about the Australian cricket team and wanted to see them play the West Indies.
They attended the Twenty20 match at the SCG last Tuesday night and the cost for two for what became about a two-hour match was $193.20.
This was made up of $31.60 each for train fare and $65 each entry.
They are paying off their home, so they will be watching on television next time.
The more fans the better the atmosphere, but there were many vacant seats at the ground.
Which brings us to "has-been" performers, both Australian and international, who in my opinion charge excessively for concerts. Lower your prices.
One day the people who manage the performers will hopefully suffer for their greed.
How's that?
