People share their opinions on high Oasis ticket prices and a ban on smoking outside.
Fans of the band Oasis were willing to endure long lines and pay up to £350 for tickets to their reunion concert, leading to a discussion about the use of dynamic pricing. Some people argue that it is simply a way for companies to make more money, while others believe it is a fair market practice. What do you think? Join the conversation in the comments section.

One reader, J Barber, is skeptical of the benefits of the free market in this situation and doesn't believe an explanation will be given. However, another reader, John from Manchester, encourages people to embrace the concert and not let the ticket companies win.

Others, like Raz from Essex, suggest that boycotting events and refusing to pay high prices could send a message to the industry. They believe that if people stopped attending events for a year, prices would go down due to lack of demand.

The discussion then shifts to the quality of Oasis's music and performance. Some readers, like Martin J Phillips from Leeds, believe the band's songs will disappear in the same way as those of other popular groups like Take That and The Spice Girls. However, others, like John from Manchester, believe the concert will be a huge success.

The conversation then turns to the proposed smoking ban in public places, including outside pubs and festivals. Deborah from North London is opposed to the ban, citing its potential negative impact on the economy and mental health. Others, like Corin from London, believe that the ban is necessary for the health of the public and do not agree with comparisons to the Holocaust.

There is also a discussion about the use of vaping in public spaces, with some readers, like Michele, arguing that it should be allowed and others, like Sean, believing it is a bigger issue than smoking.
