I'm so excited that the warmer weather is finally heading our way. Summer time is always fun for grilling out, relaxing at the pool and of course going to concerts. I'm tying to figure out what concerts I would like to attend this summer. I decided to find out what the top searched concert tickets are on AOL Search. I wasn't surprised that Jimmy Buffett and the Eagles showed up at the top of the list. Tailgating at a Jimmy Buffett concert can sometimes be more crazy than the actual concert.
I actually attended a Bon Jovi concert and an Elton John concert, but that was about 10 years ago. We had great seats for both concerts and payed only a fraction of the cost that nose bleed tickets for these concerts would be today. From Alicia Keys to Jonas Brothers people are willing to pay over $1,500 per ticket for front row seats. That to me is absolutely insane, especially for a tween band.
Are there any concerts that you are going to attend that did not make the list? If so, please tell us about them. Try searching for concerts on AOL Search or go to AOL Music to learn more about your favorite bands.

81. Unless you have ever actually been in the front row you could not understand.. I have attended nearly 100 INXS concerts over the years.. yes I said INXS... to flirt and be sung to by the late Michael Hutchence one of the greateds Rock Entertainers is priceless.. any woman which were millions at one time would have paid anything for that.. today.. they still have it and to flash smiles, lock eyes, sometimes even share a few words.. I have paid nearly 1000.. such a small price for the memories I have to call on at any given moment.........

83. the jonas brothers suck. none of their songs are at all appealing, yet kids are all over them. why would a parent pay that much for a ticket to concert? it's just bogus

84. The Jonas Brothers are not charging those prices it is the ticket scalpers - retards. People buy up these 60.00 tickets and sell them for hundreds and thousands of dollars.. We saw them with Miley Cyrus and could not wait to get tickets for their show when they are coming to our town in August. I'm a 35 year old mother with 3 girls - we LOVE the Jonas Brothers, good wholesome entertainment.

85. Wow...$1,500 to see the Jonas Brothers!!!!!
I saw them for free in NYC just a year ago and we were pretty much in the front row.

88. It doesn't surprise me that Kenny Chesney is on the top ten.. he and Keith Urban are amazing. Miley Cyrus (Hannah Montana) has the talent of a average high schooler. The only reason she is famous is because of her father, Billy Rae Cyrus, who actually has talent. I am a fan of the Jonas Brothers but I wouldn't pay more than $75-100 to go see them. I'm going to their concert at the Allentown Fair and I have floor for 15 seats for less than $100. I'm also going to see Brooks&Dunn there a couple days earlier and they have great talent. One person who I would have loved to see on the list is Phil Vassar. I've seen him before in New Jersey but it wasn't the whole band; it was just him and one of his guitarists I think. Phil Vassar is *amazing* on the piano and has an absolutely wonderful voice. I'm seeing him again this summer with the whole band. As for Taylor Swift... her voice isn't totally all that great but she's fairly new in the music industry.

91. Okay.First of all,The Jonas Brothers are talented because of their vocal and instrumental skills and we all just have to admit to that. I am a Jonas Brothers fan and i have 5th row seats to a concert and only paid $110.My parents do not spoil me and I paid for the ticket myself.And what does being a Republican have to do with anything? The Jonas brothers are 15, 18, and 20. THEY ARE NOT A TWEEN BAND. The Jonas Brothers do not make the ticket prices. They are good Christian boys and they would not do that. They hold meet and greets for Juvinile diabetes. iTS NOT LIKE THEY ARE GREEDY people. The ticket prices are set so high because the demand is that high. The original prices for those front row tickets were nowhere NEAR $1000. Blame that on the scalpers.Its not the Jonas Brothers fault.

92. The reason for outragous concert prices is lack of recording sales. No one buys music anymore. Now we have free downloads, Ipods, and we burn our own cds. The musicians have to make their money somehow. They are not making money on records, 8-tracks, cassettes, or cds anymore.

94. I can't imagine paying $1500 for a concert ticket! I was going to go to the Tokio Hotel concert in DC until it was canceled, but the tickets were only $20! $1500 is ridiculous!

96. You should try Dean Z in concert! I caught one of his shows in Las Vegas, excellent. He does Elvis tribute at Legends. Look him up on You Tube...Just an excellent performer, prices are good, well worth it. The teens and tweens love him, too. Web site on You tube was prepared by a young fan who is quite taken with him.

97. ok first of all the jonas brothers are not a teenybopper boy band. secondly, if they sell out every single one of their shows for the prices they do, then i don't see the reason you people are complaining, because obviously no one is, so get a life. oh and my parents are not rich republicans, we're middle class and i bought my own ticket. you people need to get a life and stop hating on these boys and actually maybe listen to more than one of their songs to actually judge them. & if they have no talent then why are so many people requesting them to have them on their shows, keep your ignorant remarks to yourself.

98. The Jonas Brothers are so worth everyone's money. People say they are a teeny bopper band, but open your ears... they have absoluley stunning voices, and are worth every penny you pay. I am absolutley a huge fan, and they are amazing.

99. well you noh what. you don't have any idea what your talking about so don't be saying mean stuff about JB.
it is NOT THEIR FAULT THE PRICES ARE SO HIGH
people by them when they are on sale, then resale
them for maybe more than their worth. maybe. but you have never heard them live like ihave. you haven't heard their story. THEY AREN"T TWEENS. Nick is 15, joe is 18 and kevin is 20. that is teen and young adult. they're songs are inspiring and give you the hope to move on. they are chiristin and it shows, they love they're fans and give the really really big fans presales. so you don't noh what the heck you are talking about so stfu. i am a huge fan and this artical is insulting. stop hating. its not their fault.
they're concerts are amazing
they are nice
they are respectful
they do as much as they can for their fans
and they are going to go down in history.
MILY is a diffrent story. why are you being mean to her.
she is supposse to be setting a good example for young girls. her prices are just as high and she has done some stuff saying sory sory it wont happen again, but then she does. the jonas brothers have done nothing wrong, only triing to be the best they can be in life.
Posted at 12:38PM on May 17th 2008 by emma. i love JB so there
100. Slash????Velvet Revolver??????Sure,Scott's gone but who really gives a crap,Slash duff and matt are still there.SLASH!!!!!!!!!!!
