    Okay, old-timers: How cheap were tickets to major concerts 40-50 years ago? $5? Do I hear $2?

    How about a fifty cent cover charge in a Cambridge, MA bar to see Van Morrison?

    $40 would be around $100 today.

    Seeing all these band names suddenly reminded me of a band I haven’t thought of in many years, Spooky Tooth. I never saw them live, but liked their music.

    I think I paid $7 to see Jethro Tull in 1973 at LSU.

    C’mon, Don! Get your spiel together! You are the great Don King, legendary promotor!
