Sir, – As a music fan, this year I have been lucky enough to see the American band Mr Big in the Academy in Dublin. Tickets were €35 with no reports of resales. I saw Robert Cray from one of the comfortable seats in the National Concert Hall.

Nature has a way of telling us we are getting old! – Yours, etc,
