it is true that the prices are higher ... but looking at that other bill you compared it to and beign that all those bands are current day MTV favorites ... they still fail at bringing in the cash.

I still think Crue is classless for naming that one collection "music to crash your car to"

Plus Mick Mars is ugly, gay and boring to listen to

I always thought they were a joke band who missed their own punchline.

They're a great band, with a ton of classic songs, who put on an awesome live show, and completely piss over 95% of all the bands discussed here. You don't sell 40 million records, stick around for 25 years, and define a decade by accident.

Playing in front of 5,000 people a night and making a quarter of a million dollars in 90 minutes. Where do I sign up to become a parody?

You missed the more important factor, when comparing these two events. Crue played Sioux Falls, population 125,000. A Taste of Chaos Tour played Montreal, population 1,600,000.
