Ticketmaster and Live Nation have destroyed the concert experience. But it didn’t use to be this way. Today, Oasis and Taylor Swift tickets might go for thousands of dollars, but back in 1955, you could see Elvis Presley in concert for less than the modern-day equivalent of $20.
I saw Van Halen with David Lee Roth on their first time touring in like 20 years or something. I paid $25 and this was I wanna say '07 ish?
I was at the Ozzfest where Black Sabbath did a reunion tour. Think the tickets were $25.
Seriously? Those of us who grew up with that music would have paid top dollar for that, even if their voices were shot
