This is shaping out to be one of the best years for concerts. Not only are the shows in high demand but there are plenty to choose from between solo acts, tours, and festivals.
The only problem with all of that is because of the demand, prices are high no matter where your seats are.
Taylor Swift battled it out with Ticketmaster and even The Cure had something to say about the prices of their tickets, but not every artist can fix that problem.

But this week is the perfect week for you to catch up on all of the live shows you want to see the rest of this year because it’s Live Nation’s $25 concert week.
If there’s a show you’ve been wanting to get tickets to but couldn’t possibly spend the money they were going for, now is your time to take advantage.
Luckily, New Jersey has plenty of venues with plenty of shows coming up so you can get a great deal on your tickets.
Here are the participating shows in New Jersey during the $25 concert week.
