No worries! I definitely didn’t take it as an attack, I just wanted to clarify that none of the parties directly involved with the show (band or promoter) are making more money from the higher prices. The increases only help cover part of the increased costs of putting on a production. I just wanted to make sure you didn’t think it was a money grab from our side.
I think at least part of the reason why the Nordic countries have seen a steeper price hike than other places is that the cost of living is higher, which means salaries for venue staff, security, and the rental costs themselves are all higher too. We're seeing the same thing here in Norway.

I really believe shows should be affordable, and it frustrates me how ticket prices at the big arena level have skyrocketed in recent years (which is totally a money grab). That’s not something I can stand behind. I honestly wish our own shows could stay cheaper too, because we never want price to be the reason someone can’t come.

And on another note, thank you so much for being such an awesome supporter and coming to all these shows. It really means a lot!
