OVERHEARD: LIVE IN CONCERT

Text

A concert ticket cost $4.50 in 1974

1974, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band appeared at the State Theatre in New Brunswick, New Jersey. The gig was unadvertised by its promoter, who gambled that word-of-mouth would be enough to fill the 550-seat venue, only 250 people attended. Tickets cost $4.50 and $5.50 in advance.

If tickets still costs $4.50, I’d be seeing music every night of the week.
