My honest opinion is that all these things have the value you give them. The prices are crazy: I don't know how the program is, but it surely doesn't "worth" $20, unless your heart and affection didn't give it this price. I have a plastic binoculars I bought in Perugia for the Gil Evans-Sting concert. They costed very little money but I consider them a treasure: I bring them to every concert I go! So I think it's a matter of love..... just hold in your mind it's a market and we are the costumers.... but love and affection change the perspective! ;D

wow, micra, you were a part of that legendary concert in Perugia. I can only watch my rather poor-quality videotape transfer.

Well in this day and age $20 is about average. College World Series programs were about $13.00 and not near as collectable as one for The Police. SO it's a matter of do you really want the thing. The T-Shirts for the Colleges ran about $30-$40. You can buy them at Wal-Mart for about $15. It's called price gouging because they know people will spend the money. I personally would not. But whatever trips your trigger. But I did just buy a second copy of "The Police Live" because it was on sale. WHY I have no idea.

It's legal to make a backup copy for personal use, i.e., playing it in own car.... at least in Italy. So backup backup bakup!!!! ;D

I bought the program. It has alot of pix that everyone has seen before-but I figure, I waited 24 years to see this band, so I'm making sure I get one.

I bought one. I thought it was worth it. The only thing I didn't like about them were the ads in the back. I figure they shouldn't need ads but whatever.

I got one just cause I had a 20 left and I wanted another souvenire (don't ask how many I already had) and it's cool to have just because it's from the concert i'd always dreamed would happen, but In my honest opinion, it wasn't quite worth $20- I should have borrowed a bit of money from a friend and got another shirt or something now that I look back on it (not that i dont already have enough police shirts).
