MuseBR's text is on the biggest brazilian news website http://oglobo.globo.com/cultura/musica/fa-clube-do-muse-se-mobiliza-contra-preco-dos-ingressos-dos-shows-da-banda-no-brasil-16277452

Muse is not famous in Brasil as in Europe. In 2008 after a sold out Wembley Stadium, they sold 2,5k tickets for Rio and 6k tickets for São Paulo. São Paulo has 12 million habitants, while Rio has 6 million.... I think that's the proportion they take to choose the venue around here.

Allianz Arena has capacity of 50k in concerts. Allianz Arena is located in São Paulo. With good prices (not that expensive nor cheap) it would have 30k~35k people on concert day. Imagine how many people will be there with these VERY expensive prices. São Paulo is the rock capital of Brasil Same for Rio: HSBC Arena has capacity of 18k. with good prices it would have 8k~12k. Imagine how many people will be there with these VERY expensive prices. I'm Brazilian, I'm from Rio. I know the fan base around here They HAVE to lower these prices.

Remember that what may be cheap for europeans (or others) may not be cheap for brazilians. We live in a Third World country, our wages are not that high :/ Half price is for students (that can prove that they are students), who isnt a student pay R$320,00 for a bad session in venue.

Muse in Mexico is exaclty R$309,91 (already converted)

I paid R$180,00 to see Muse + U2 on the first row of fans :/ And PJ is cheaper than Muse here in Brasil

Dom Anderson didnt give a F. I don't respect him anymore, sorry. We (brazilians) need to reach Matt, Dom and Chris. They could do some pressure on T4F, causa they are the stars of the event. T4F is the company that set prices of tickets and sell them. Sorry for my terrible english :/

This Tuesday, Muse fans in Brazil were surprised by the exorbitant prices announced by T4F for the upcoming gigs in October, only a day before the pre-sale date. They want to make money out of our love for a band that denounces the evils of capitalism… Our monthly minimum wage in Brazil is exactly R$ 788,00. A premium ticket at the floor level in Rio de Janeiro is priced at R$ 700,00. Plus what the most loyal fans might pay for the absurd invention called “early entry”, a meager R$ 300,00 extra to get to the barrier first. Are there cheaper seats? Yes. Far away from the stage. In short, if you want to get near the band, you’ll have to spend an amount of money which is not in keeping with the country’s average income, not by a long shot, coming close to the monthly income of many Brazilians. Thus, premium tickets will not be for the biggest fans, but for the richest. Are we buying tickets to see the same band that wrote “ANIMALS”, exposing capitalism’s limitless greed, which will trample on anyone and anything for more profit? It’s become hard to accept the contradiction. MUSE must have their eyes opened for the abusive prices being imposed on their Brazilian fans. In face of all this, our team at the MUSEBR fan club informs that we will put off our decision to go to the gigs in Brazil, to show our indignation at these prices, which are far removed from our reality. Not even tickets to bands like U2, Arctic Monkeys, Pearl Jam or Queen have cost as much. We want more than anyone else for our favorite band to come to Brazil and enjoy mainstream fame here. We work towards that goal for free, and we were prepared to be partners in the promotion of the events, helping attract the largest public possible to the gigs in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. Unfortunately, what T4F accomplished with their “business strategy” was to disencourage even the most faithful fans. We make a point of being respected as customers, and not being ripped off and made fools of because we follow our favorite band. Let everyone who hears the reason in our arguments hold out and wait for a statement from T4F regarding their prohibitive prices before you buy your tickets. http://www.musebr.com/05/2015/nota-d...dos-ingressos/
