Miley Cyrus, AKA Hannah Montana is set to perform later this month at the Gwinnett Arena. You've probably already heard about the ticket sellers grabbing up all the tickets so now they are going for astronomical prices. This AJC article about some tickets selling for over $5,000 isn't as upsetting, since the auctioning of the tickets benefited the March of Dimes. That's a worthy cause at least, but still I am shocked at all the hubbub about the Hannah Montana tickets.
I've watched the Hannah Montana show many times because my twin daughters are fans of the show, but they are almost 14 years old, so they are a little old for the concert, and even they say "it's probably all just lip-synched anyway." But even if they did care a lot about the concert, there would be no way I would pay that kind of money. Sometimes we just have to tell kids no. They need to learn that just because they want something, it doesn't mean they deserve it or will get it. There's entirely too much instant gratification going on. They need to deal with not getting everything they want.
The only way I might consider paying $5,000 and up for tickets for a concert is if John Lennon and George Harrison were resurrected and the Beatles reunited.
