That's generalizing. You know quite well that going to strip bar isn't the same as "watching a live band". I could just take your examples further: can't people just find pleasure in their own minds? Why not just imagine being somewhere? In fact, what's the point of imagination? Pleasure is a waste of time and we should just never be happy because life is pointless. Since it's pointless, we shouldn't exist.

I'm asking about a very specific thing because I want to understand that specific thing. Your response is like answering the question "why don't sunni and shia believe the same thing, it's Islam" with "people believe different things and that's alright". Or "why does Joel and Hardy have beef?" with "some people don't like each other, OK?". Or "is this correct?" with "it depends". It adds nothing of value and doesn't really answer the question. It's a bad faith answer.
