I'm trying to book Metallica tickets in advance for their upcoming show in Charlottesville, VA on October 17th. I guess my question would be does anybody know of any sites that could get me a possible discount or help me out with this? I was on Metallica's website and I wanted to look at their tix prices so I followed the tour links and whatnot and looked into buying a ticket off UVA's JPJ Arena website, and after doing the math, it ended up lookin like this: 49.50 for the ticket, 11.50 service charge, 2 dollar facility charge, 3.75 processing fee, and to top it off if I wanted to park near the stadium that's another 17.40 to bring my grand total to about 82 bucks-ish.
I looked into all the regular user-sell tix websites like stubhub, tickets.com, etc. and the mininum price listed was 91 bucks, so that's out. I don't have a lot of money what with everything I have going on so I'm basically trying to cut out the middleman and just buy cheap tickets direct from somebody or find a site that could get me a possible discount to lower the price by 5-10 bucks. Anybody got any advice?
I feel like it's an exorbitant price but I've been wanting to see Metallica for a while and I figure I should take this opportunity while it's still available to me.
