I agree that concert prices are clearly out of control but I honestly think it's not completely because of greed by performers. What has happened is that so many seats, especially good seats, end up in the hands of scalpers, due to the corrupt Ticketmaster ( that only the Dead and Pearl Jam had the balls to take on ), and these scalpers marked up the prices substantially. The increased prices became almost a necessity in order to minimalize scalping.
