Would you really pay €500 for an Oasis ticket?

Analysis: As many will find out on Saturday morning, we don't always rationally and objectively evaluate our willingness to pay a high price for a ticket in advance of doing so

The announcement of an Oasis reunion tour has sent their many fans (myself included) into a frenzy of excitement. The band are set to play 14 concerts across the UK and Ireland, with Irish promotors MCD confirming that tickets for their Croke Park gigs will be priced from €86.50.

But as anyone who has waited in a virtual Ticketmaster queue for tickets to a high demand gig will know only too well, these lower price tickets tend to sell out very quickly. You can end up in a situation where the only tickets available to you are much more expensive. For example, the highest priced Coldplay tickets for their gigs in Dublin this week cost €500.

The guns have fallen silent.
The stars have aligned.
The great wait is over.
Come see.
It will not be televised. pic.twitter.com/FaELtNlVMh
