00:00 I don't know if I get priced out. I normally go to music events or theatre.
00:05 And I think with theatre you can get some good deals if you're planning ahead and go for the cheap seats, back seats, that kind of stuff.
00:17 So I think those events are very expensive but you can get some good deals. There's lots of offers around.
00:23 And then music events really varies. I guess if you're on it and go for the smaller venues you can get some accessible tickets.
00:31 But on the whole, both music and theatre probably are.
00:35 I think probably festivals. I don't think they've gone up that much. I think concerts have gone up quite a lot.
00:43 But yeah, I think it is excessive sometimes what they're charging. And it always has been.
00:49 I've got respect for the artists and they need to be paid. I don't think these things should be free necessarily.
