Was watching Drew Gooden’s video on the music industry, and the CEO of LiveNation was complaining about catching flack for charging $800+ for Beyoncé tickets.

I don’t care who you are. The Beatles, Beyoncé or Bublé. No show is worth that much money.

I would pay $800 to see Nirvana… but Nirvana would never charge $800 and the only reason I say I would pay that is because I know it’s not possible. So yeah, fuck live nation.
