If you couldn’t score a ticket to Tom Jones‘ sold-out Thursday night show at Ruth Eckerd Hall, you may want to dip into your savings, because this Friday night show—which benefits Ruth Eckerd Hall’s Marcia P. Hoffman School of The Arts—is gonna cost you a pretty penny if you’re not part of the venue’s Friends of Music membership.

Expect to hear a career retrospective from the 84-year-old, which will indeed include his cover of Prince’s “Kiss” and “Delilah,” which remains one of the goriest, hottest takes regarding being cheated on of our grandparents’ generation.

Passes to see Tom Jones play The BayCare Sound in Clearwater on Friday, May 2 are still available for $550.
