Probably because most of the worlds large acts live in the US and you reside on the other side of the world.

The airfare for bands, equipment, roadies and groupies isn't free.

While that is true in some cases, in others you'll get bands of similar size and touring needs that your here at the same venues and one may cost $70 and one may cost $40. I saw Ed a few years back at his acoustic show and it cost $30 more than seeing Royal Crown Revue, also from the US but are 7 or 8 piece band at the same venue. It would cost them a lot more to your than it would just Ed on his own and they packed the place out like Ed did but were so much cheaper. That isn't a specific go at Ed but just that I think a lot of artists tour here and charge a lot more than they need to just because they can.
