Biggest gig this week, no contest is Jerry Seinfeld at the O2 Arena. And also the most expensive at £100 a ticket.
This is a lot to pay for a comedy gig. At the C4 Comedy Gala at the same venue last week people paid £60 for a ticket. This seemed a lot at the time, but for that fans got 21 comedians, which works out at £2.86, per act, which is probably not bad value for tester-pot sized turns from the likes of Michael McIntyre and Peter Kay.
Seinfeld is a bit more special though. He hasn't played the UK since 1998 - I remember it well, it was on the day of the World Cup Final so I had to choose between the two and I chose Seinfeld.
