Some shows are missing; lost stub, failed memory, etc.
If the ticket was won on the radio, I was put on the guest list so had no actual ticket.
Ergo, the ticket price is unknown. The price will be listed as "won".
If I don't know the price of af a ticket, my entrance was either won, OR
(lost) - I lost the ticket long ago
(1*) - The price is not on the ticket stub that I still have
(2*) - Entrance was purchased at the door, so no stub, and I've no memory of the cost.
ATTENTION
Most concerts have a support, or opening act.
In that circumstance, there will be two lines listing each artist for that Date/City/Venue.
The cost listed at the right is for both (or multiple) artists at the one show.

2010 was about the time that my concert going cut way back. I don't remember why.
For some reason I didn't file my ticket stubs or keep good records of the shows I did see.
The stubs that I do have from 2010 until now are listed below.
With the advent of digital tickets (which I LOATHE) and my not having a cell phone,
many times other people would buy the tickets so that I have no record of the show or the cost.

A Bit of Explanation
As you might expect all this data is tainted by my particular tastes and the circumstances and vagaries of life's ebb and flow.
Nothing was consistent except that tickets were purchased at face value. No shows were included in this whose price I didn't know.
During the 1970's and 1980's I was going to see some of the biggest bands in the world,
mostly at arenas (Capital Centre in DC, Rupp Arena in Lexington, KY, Spectrum in Philly).
As the 90's and naughts progressed I saw more shows in smaller venues, mostly 2nd, or 3rd tier bands.
There was a period in the 2000's where I was seeing more shows for free (thank you WREK-FM)
Ticket Fees
Until the early 2000's ticket fees were nominal.
During the 70's-90's they were, at most, a dollar. Less than 10% of the face value of the ticket.
Nothing to even consider.
These reasonable fees are not included (usually) on the ticket stub, so are NOT INCLUDED here.
Then around 2008, the fees EXPLODED adding up to a 1/3 or 1/4 of the ticket's face value to the total cost.
That's just ridiculous and I won't be a part of it.
Only once have I paid a surcharge ticket fee.
Our son was performing with Sister Hazel at the Buckhead Roxy Theatre. After talking to the very non-helpful, incredibly disingenuous Live Nation venue manager,
it was apparent that he would not tell me how, or even if one could purchase a ticket without an added fee.
It WAS still possible then, given the rules printed on the ticket (your "contract") and in the advertising.
** That was the end of big concerts for me. **
You used to be able to avoid fees if you bought at the box office - at least for a while you could.
Those days are now long gone.
Currently, there is practically no way to avoid an add-on for any kind of mid, to large-scale concert.
So I don't go to them. I stick to small shows in tiny venues, basically bands on their way UP, or bands on their way DOWN.
Some shows are missing.
NOT updated to include any concerts since 2010.
