I think concert tickets are expensive only if you listen to pop music. I recently went to a concert with line up of Cannibal Corpse, Mayhem and two more bands and the tickets were just $50.
I went to a Shrek rave for $20
It will primarily depend on the venue. Ticketmaster/Live Nation managed venues will be far more expensive, and they now operate ticket sales for basically all of them
Yeah, but even then, it’s still true that non-mainstream artists’ show tickets are cheaper than a mainstream pop one. A metal concert ticket would be anything between $45 and $125 depending on where you sit. While a kpop concert ticket can cost $80 for nosebleeds.
Classical music is even a better deal. I was in the 2nd row to see Augustin Hadelich play Mozart and the tickets were less than $30. Lucky for me I’d rather see that than any pop music.
