I read in the Wall Street Journal that the tie-up between Ticketmaster & Live Nation may usher in something called 'flex pricing,' where tickets are cheaper the further out you buy them and more expensive the longer you wait. I'm not sure that'll come to pass, or even if it does whether it will apply to U2 or just tougher-to-sell shows.
I think stadium shows would offer more affordable tickets, if only because there are so many more 'bad' seats in a stadium versus an arena.
