Also noted is how cheap it was to see the Beatles back in 65 at the height of their popularity, + how little the band was paid...

Ahhh, but money was a LOT different back then. At about the same time, I had what was considered a well paying manufacturing job...pulling unfinished lumber off a mill's "green chain". I still remember the hourly pay...$2.12 per hour. People bought houses, raised families on that kind of money.
