Summary: “Beyoncé is selling “listening only” tickets for her Renaissance tour. The seats are behind the stage, so you can’t see any of the set or dancing, but they only cost $157 compared to the ~$900 fans have been paying for regular US tickets.”
haha!
fuuuuuuuck that.
while Beyonce et al are part of the problem, the ticket monopoly giant capitalist machine sure ain’t helping - and that affects even indie artists with a decent following.
True but I go to shows for bands all the time that don’t fuck with ticket master and do it all DIY, never paid more than 20-30$ for a ticket.
Those monopolies suck but Beyonce doesn’t need to be charging that much money for you to listen and not even be able to see it. It’s a greedy cash grab and she looks disgusting doing it.
100%
It just absolutely sucks that Ticketmaster dominates mainstream organized concert going.
