The State Of Montana Isn't Worth This Much!

I guess this is why Deathlok is pulling his hair out . . .
Forget The Police, Justin Timberlake or Bruce Springsteen. The undisputed hottest concert ticket of the year is for 14-year-old pop star Miley Cyrus, star of the Disney Channel's "Hannah Montana" TV show.

Fans are so desperate for seats to her 54-date tour, kicking off later this month, that venues have sold out in as little as four minutes and scalpers are getting four to five times the face value — creating a torrent of complaints from frustrated parents.

About 12,000 seats for the Memphis show were gone in 8 minutes. It took 15 minutes in Columbus, Ohio, and swift sellouts have been reported across the country — Nashville, Miami, Lexington, Ky. The Kansas City Council is investigating the matter.

One ticket for the show in Charlotte, N.C., sold for $2,565. (H/T - Yahoo!)
So, what? Does this chick get naked or something?

These are the days I drop to my knees and thank God I do not have a girl - and pray to God that the missus is not currently carrying one. Do people realize that Led Zeppelin reunion tickets wouldn't go for this much. And they're Zeppelin!

Here's a barometer of what I would like to, but would not pay $2,565 for:
  • Dinner with John Elway, Wayne Gretzky, Cal Ripken, and Jeff Gordon.
  • A walk-on role during Battlestar Galactica - even if they let my fly a viper.
  • A fully-functioning lightsaber.
And here's what I would (probably) pay $2,565 for:
