I still love live music but who I go the see and hear and where has changed over the years. Going to stadiums to hear multiple acts is still fun with a group of people. Tailgating before and after and the shared experience is fun as long as I’m willing to pay the ridiculously high prices. I’m glad I saw so many acts over the years that I don’t have to overpay to see legacy acts that are over the hill just to see them once before they go to rock and roll heaven. Hearing local acts or up and coming acts at smaller local venues is great for just me and my wife. For legacy acts we have enjoyed cover bands in small theaters as a reasonable price.
Is anyone here still into live concerts these days?
Concert Ticket Prices Are Expected to Keep Rising in 2025 and Beyond
keeps me wondering if it's even worth it anymore (smaller live music venues excluded as they don't typically charge as much)
