...according to a post on the NPGMC. This means that you are getting the same thing we got last year... access to soundcheck in first 15 rows, for $117 US (approx.). Remember aftershows were never guaranteed, as some cities got them while others did not.

The higher prices are for if people want anything extra. Which seems to be more choices. But those who don't want to take advantage of those choices still enjoy the basic benefits from last year.

Again, this sounds like the a la carte thing that ppl wanted last year--pay for what you want, and only for what you want.
