2. And here I thought JLo canceled her tour because of a failing marriage…

3. Entertainment monopolies are byad. Mmmkay…

4. It is total greed by Ticketmaster and such. A lot of the bands I like also play in Europe, and despite being in large cities (Vienna, Berlin, Etc.) the ticket prices are over 1/2 the cost as seeing the same band in the States. American’s are like the biggest corporate cucks of all time, but glad to hear people are starting to push back some.

5. we need to adress stores like grocery and fast food closing at absurd times post pandemic. No pizza shops in my area are opened past 7. if they are they usually close the grill at 5 or whatver b.s to stop you from ordering. young people cant stay in certian areas of america. imma move cause of this shi

6. The black keys example is stupid. 

   Ticketmaster and the promoter were charging over $400 for the black keys…

   That’s …. wildly out of step with reality

7. I’ve now seen multiple times more articles about the death of live concerts than the number of large acts that have actually canceled tours.

8. An issue with attending live venues is unless you get the good seats the cheap seats you can’t see anything. You can hear but that is like half the experience gone. You want the good seats _$$$$
