Well the thing is, she really needs the money.
So Beyonce wants the poors out of sight and out of mind while those who can afford her $900+ tickets can see her?
I never liked Beyonce, but now she can legitimately go fuck herself at this point.
I mean it's still live music? It's still a party? I am not a Beyonce fan and I would never pay that much money for one artist. But it's not like you see the artists anyway if you are at the back. So it's only over the big screens
That’s what live concert albums are for. Pretty much the whole reason to go to a concert is to see the artist(s) perform, not just listen to them - you can can listen to them on a CD or Spotify/YouTube any random day of the week.
It’s gross they’re charging $900 to see Beyonce, but it’s even more disgusting to charge ~$150 to not see her and only listen from the backstage like some shmuck.
Wait, what? $900 to see Beyonce? How is that justified? Or even possible?
Back in my day we called that being outside the venue.
Fuck Beyoncé. 900 bucks for a concert? To hear the shit she or her team produce? Fuck her.
This woman is one of the worst.
No idea how she has fans.
her fans will defend this
Her voice is so awful anyway. She couldn't pay me to listen to her garbage ass "music".
I haven’t been to a concert in years. Prices are just too much, and then there’s this bullshit
Pop and other giant artists are the ones with insane prices. Small bands are pretty reasonable still. I go see well known metal artists' concerts in LA for $20-55, usually around $30. More than it used to be sure, but it's a bit less than $900 lol
Any blind people here with opinions on the matter? Assuming it's an artist you'd like to hear, would you buy a cheaper ticket in back, or still want to be out front?
There is no one I would pay that much money to see.
That's the thing, you ain't going to even see her with those tickets.
A fool and his money...
These days there are way too many fools with way too much money.
They won't even have something like a screen to see what's happening on stage?
That would be extra $100 sir
