Local bands are fun. That's about all I can afford.
I remember I went to WrestleMania 18 as a teen and it was $100 a ticket and I was appalled at the expense. Most epic event I've been to. They're coming back to Toronto so I wanted to check prices to take my kid, and the tickets are roughly $1500 each now.
Pre pandemic (and pre metoo accusations against him) I went to a Manson/slipknot concert for $75. After the pandemic I checked tickets for a similar tier band and it was $300. We got fucked and just accepted it
On the other hand I am going to see Jimmy Carr live for like 30-40 euros.
I think that actually has a value, concerts I find to be meh, it's the same music you listen to anyway just very expensive, worse quality and surrounded by sweat, alcohol and too many people.
I prefer going to a festival and then maybe there is a band like and maybe I discover some new ones.
from before ~~time~~ camera phones.
I think this is a pandemic post but I may just get wooshed now typing this...
If you do, you won't be alone.
Yes it is but that person might have stopped going when people started using their phone during concerts
Ooof
