Good news for anyone who likes paying extra charges for concert tickets: Live Nation has started selling aisle seats at select shows with a surcharge of $5 to $30 a pop for those who are “looking to enjoy the convenience of easy access to refreshments, restrooms, and venue exits.” In other words: those who want aisle seats.
Even better: It’s not ONLY the actual seat on the aisle: in some cases it’s also the second, third and fourth seats into the row. Although for now, these price hikes must be approved by both the artist and the promoter. Just remember, despite the ritzy “premium” seat, you still have to stand up every time EVERYONE ELSE needs to squeeze past you to get out.
