Then, like, don’t play massive stadiums then? If Taylor Swift (don’t care about her but it’s kinda the main point of this thread) actually listened to her fans and decided postpone and restructure her tour around smaller independent venues and sell non-transferable tickets directly to fans she could’ve started a real change in the live music community. But she didn’t. Because, ya know, it wouldn’t make as much money.
Seriously. I went and saw ratm a couple years ago since my buddy had bought tickets ($120 each BTW) and there were advertisements EVERYWHERE. It was like a late stage capitalist hellscape which was made even worse knowing the band I was going to see claimed to be against all that. It was fucking horrible.
Yeah let’s sell out a fucking arena so we can have all these drunk gen x assholes complain about how the band has gotten too political when we say the supreme court sucks. It was soooo fucking cringe
Yuck. I was invited to a Tyler the Creator concert last year and it was awful. Billboards everywhere in the city and hours of standing in line. We were in the first 10 rows of the crowd but could hardly see anything with all the camera crews, security, and the height of the stage. I wont even go into how bad the crowd was.
But then only a tiny fraction of her fans would be able to see her at all. Even if she did round the clock shows she wouldn’t compete with the density those mega venues provide.

I’ll take smaller venues every day.

As opposed to only a tiny fraction of her (rich) fans? Doesn’t really seem like an argument to me
