Do you prefer to pay on the door at gigs?

Hi

I've been having a chat with a few friends and at least some of the people I know, prefer to wait until the last min and pay for a gig on the door - even though it's usually more expensive!

These are for smaller bands, where entry is a tenner or less, not to see the Fleetwood Mac's of this world. Also, for gigs they decided they going to go to way in advance.

I promote some shows and it's always reassuring to see those adv sales creeping but I've noticed with some of my own shows. The apparent growing trend of people to just turn up and pay X on the door.

I'm wondering whether this is coming more common at gigs in general and if you guys always buy an adv ticket or wait until the last minute.
