How much would u pay for a 'dream gig' re

It depends not only on the gig, but I think on your circumstances at the time, and how much value (not price) you put on the experience.
In the past i have spent £300 on a pair of opera tickets,(a gift for my partner and worth every darned penny) and £750 for a pair of FA cup final tickets.(from a scum bag tout, but again for that experience worth every penny- Arsenal winning the double back in '98) Both i think was TOTALLY good value, and wonderful experiences because they both meant so much more than what it might seem on face value.......... but for a gig, hmmmm, I dunno, I do think that it can get out of hand the way prices are ramped up, especially as you say sonic assisin as the dvd sales tv rights etc etc of these huge gigs reap in quite a chunk of money.
There have been times in my life when I couldn't afford £20 for a ticket for a gig I ached to see, but the earth didn't stop spinning.
i tend to put values on things these days that have nothing to do with price.
If I had the money, and it meant a lot to me I might spend it, but it wouldn't worry if I missed it for lack of funds.
As much as i would like to hear Genesis with the Gabriel line up, I have to say without time travel that won't be possible. i don't think it is always a good idea to get what you wish for, sometimes it can be a let down. I love what PG is doing now, and that's ok with me.

P-C

I would pay almost anything to see a Syd-era and an early Floyd concert. Of course, I would have to go back in time because I don't want to see them now; they're old :P

a friend of mine recently paid £250.00 to see Cream.

That would definately be a highlight of my life.   You can bring back people from the dead? Wow, I'd pay a lot more that $350 to see that!

I would sell my children to see Kate Bush live.

Well see the thing is a revival isn`t like catching them in their prime , I mean  there's a synergy often lost when bands try and do these things ... I tell you what I`d rather a time machine to take me back to the 70`s .. now that would be the answer 

id pay a lot for a pink floyd reunion...whatever line up....but id prefer a stripped down version pre wall....and i believe id pay a good sum of money for the ramones....i never got to see them :(  oh man...what i wouldnt pay to see miles davis though!!!

MattNYR is right about a Genesis Reunion, but I would like to keep them clear of the Lamb Lies Down in Broadway and maybe to focus them in their previous albums. I would pay a stiff price to see them.

Gig of your life doesnt have price... to see Pink Floyd i would pay whatever i can...
