I know sooo many people who want to see it, but they're balking on price. But I have to imagine the margins on tickets & expenses are razor thin here.

My understanding is that they're barely breaking even when they sell out at full price. Any real profit stems from the (limited) merchandise options and the overpriced (though quite good) drinks in the after-show bar.

Open a phantom bar during daytime, you'd make bank from tourists.

I was surprised at the lack of merch options, though I guess it's on par with some recent shows I've seen? I don't have plans to go again but if they make the call I'll have to try for a ticket. I still regret waiting on Life & Trust.
