Dionne Warwick Live......tickets, min $1000 each.

I have read and reread your discussion and before answering your question I would like to know whether your husband actually did buy you the ticket or if this question is hypothetical, as I would phrase my response differently knowing that you attended the performance than if I knew you followed your conscience instead. Please clarify if you wish to.

I think the fact that the shows are now wanting around $100 or more is too much. There are a few show's I'd like to see, but I was so shocked at the price of the tickets its totally turned me off!

No way would I pay that much to see anyone, I think this is a perfect example of superstars forgetting their real fans, that would be way out of the range for most of the people who really made her, most of the people who will be there are people also with a lot of money who just want to be seen at the big gig....

Hi & Hello, mushroomLady. I will appreciatively and proudly attend the dinner and show if my hubby pay for the ticket, and it is my investment for at least I must get five (5) new prestigious friends in that dinner for my business friendship and networking. That is my prime objective and the show for Dionne Warwick will be my secondary objective. My husband always told me that way and he has a lot of proves for every year he attended Formula 1 racing circuit event in Sepang for every April each year. He never failed with his new 5 foreign friends (at least) for every event where he purposely bought MYR1,000/ticket for his "TOPAZE SEAT". An event is an excitement, actually. But the after event connections and networkings will make us WORTH IT for attending that paid event. Happy Postings and Earnings, mushroomLady. HAPPY DAPPY.

I don't know. probably not. We are the stay at home and enjoy the peace after the kids have gone to bed kind of people.

No, I wouldn't let my hubby pay that kind of money for one night of entertainment. I love her as well, but it's not worth that kind of money, not unless we were millionaires. I have a hard time believing that it would cost that much to see anyone perform. I mean, how many tickets could they possibly sell? How many people have that much money to spend on entertainment?

My conscience would not let my hubby pay $1,000 to go see any kind of show, (dinner included or not), no matter who was performing. I think some of these "superstars" have lost sight of their beginnings, and fogotten about the millions of fans who helped them to become successful. Without their support over the years, many would'nt be superstars today - it's only because of their loyal fans; many of those fans would love to see Ms Warwick, but couldn't afford it. What about them? So, did you attend the dinner and show?

Think of it as a sweet Christmas gift. It is very nice to be treated to special things every now and then. Life is too short to deprive yourself of the things that you enjoy. I say go for it.

well... if our income is Rm-25-Thousand per month - i will jump at the opportunity of seeing Ms.Warwick live in Concert - i might even buy the most expensive ticket and take along all my five children... but reality check - my husband and i dont make that much money... and eventhough i luv ms.warwick and her niece ms.huston like crazy.... Rm 1000 for a concert is just wayyyyy over my budget. That money could easily be used for my car installments, PLUS monthly groceries. i guess... i just have to settle to listening to her 'sing to me' on the CDs...

Hi mushroomLady! I do admire Ms Dionne Warwick too. I used to listen to her music all the time because my mother just love her voice and so do i. I think if my husband will treat me to a dinner show like that, I will watch it and appreciate the loving gesture of my hubsand but like you, my conscience will feel otherwise. Too much money to spend for a single night of pleasure which i can do so much on necessary things doesn't really sit well on my practical sense. Take care and have a nice day. :)
