And you thought those Rolling Stone tix were pricey

At least Central Arkansans aren't having to fork out $1,800 a ticket for Barbra Streisand, as they are in New York. A funny look at REALLY outrageous ticket prices from the Daily News.

Also funny was news last week that some Barbra fans were threatening a class-action lawsuit because the last time she toured, it was going to be the "final" tour, and they had forked out a life savings for her then.

Can't Bill Clinton do something for Barbra fans, even if he doesn't feel their pain?

Last year a couple local yokels paid $2K each for tickets to CHER. Stupid is as stupid does.
