The Observation Deck

Parents across America have been paying hundreds and even thousands of dollars for Hannah Montana tickets.

9 out of 10 concert goers agree: "We would have been better off going
to a local high school show choir concert and using the rest of the
money for a few shopping trips to Target

Parents complain about the prices & the scalpers, but they pay it anyway. Stop paying the exorbitant amount of money people! Your child will be no worse off for not have attended these concerts.

It is sad to see parents groveling or shelling out that much money in an effort to make their kids happy.

It never cost so much to see the Brady Bunch Kids on tour, or even the Osmonds.

Isn't paying to see the spawn of Achey-Breaky Heart one of the signs of the Apocalypse?

I feel Achy breaky heart is to 90s country music what Disco Duck was to Disco: the ultimate expression of the genre. I'm more partial to lyle lovett, and I won't get annoyed when achy breaky is on the radio.

It is nice that american teens can make modest fortunes with tv shows and music tours. but no kid deserves to have their parents spent hundreds of dollars on tickets for this kind of entertainment, no matter how well adjusted and endearing they are. that kind of money should only be spent on Led Zeppelin reunion concerts.

Indeed.

Me, too.

Lovett played at the Civic Auditorium on several occasions and they were great shows in spectacular venue for Lovett.

We also saw him and his Large Band at Blossom but really missed the intimacy of the Civ Aud.
