I love it: "Historic" Crew Stadium$500+ dollars between tickets and parking to just walk in the door all four days at sonic temple. Lineup just isn’t strong enough to justify that type of money.
I saw something on Twitter showing how insane these were priced and resale prices are just as wildMadonna has announced a new tour and she has a date scheduled in in CLE on 8/2.
In true Madonna form the way she announced it was one of the wackiest promo vehicles for a tour I have witnessed:
All these legacy acts are going to stage tours this year and build up their 401Ks before Live Nation is forced to change the business model of selling tickets in this country. (Expect more big names to hit the road in late summer and early fall to try and make some massive $s while the going is good.) Those douchebags from Live Nation were in front of some Senate committee this week and looked clueless as they tried to defend themselves as not a monopoly, yeah right. My guess is they change the new dynamic model a bit so they are not forced to break up their strangle hold on the business of music.I saw something on Twitter showing how insane these were priced and resale prices are just as wild
