    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.
