maga starting to realize that russian bots in comment sections don't attend rallies/concerts/festivals.

    I doubt it.

    Maga voted to be poor.

    And fortunately, they got what they voted for.

    When it comes to music, that's not even just a MAGA problem. There's a lot of artists lately that have been cancelling tours when they booked stadiums, not realizing that clicks don't necessarily mean ticket sales.

    I mean, shitty tickets are like $300 a piece now. I have more disposable income than the average person in my demographic and I'm not paying that much for 2 hours of entertainment.

    That depends entirely on who you're seeing and where. I was just at a show where tickets were around $50.

    Personally I'm still doing a livenation/ticketmaster boycott, which pretty much means a concert boycott since I don't really look around for non-livenation concerts.

    Though it would be nice to see the economic squeeze hurt their monopoly, like if they can't reduce their prices to meet demand because they've overextended on credit and end up forced to sell some venues. Would be even better to see those venues then get sold out for non-livenation shows to add insult to injury.

  • Doesn't help when an entire show gets bought by scalpers or just has absurd prices from the start. A couple decades back I would go to big festival style shows for less than $100, now it costs $300 for a balcony seat behind a pole.
