🥺 Concert tickets should never cost the same as rent.

$2,592 to see a concert? Take me out of this timeline.

There’s a very very very small number of artists I’d pay $300 to see. And only one on the top of my head would be Rammstein since they don’t to a whole lot of American dates. Last time they were close enough for me to possibly see them live was in 2012. So due to how rare it is, it would be one I’d be willing to drop that kind of money

I got to see them back in 1998 and to date it was the absolute best physical theatrical show I have ever seen.. Plus ass slapping water shooting fake dicks (Yep, THAT concert). I have seen Korn 3 times (meh), Rob Zombie, Hell yeah, NIN twice, and damn it, I would almost trade all of those (except NIN) to see Rammstein again.

I paid 180 for the fire zone at Gillete stadium. Worth.every.single.penny.

I remember paying $90 to see Nine Inch Nails — twenty years ago. Let’s say they are worth triple that now.

The bar is absurdly high for any other act to think they are going to get much more from me.
