GAcoaster Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 $125 for a carload of 4 seems a little steep to me, but I guess compared to the coat of "regular" concert tickets it's a bargain. Now if they can get Dolly Parton to perform with them on the song they did together, that MIGHT be worth the price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
