That much maligned pop group The Monkees toured Australia in 1968. The cost of a ticket to see them at Festival Hall in Melbourne was only $2.10. Inflation is a truly frightening phenomenon.

in 1968 an 18-year-old working as a bank clerk would have received $24 per week, so the ticket would be the equivalent of about $40 now. I remember the tix for The Beatles were 34/- or $3.40
