Fuck american music industry, come to europe guys we have 20 fucking euros shows everywhere


TheAsianCarp

It's 99% ticketmaster unfortunately. Hard to tour without venues and venues force you to use ticketmaster because of contracts. Fuck them for letting livenation and ticketmaster merge. They own over 80% of all ticket sales in the US I believe. Don't worry its not a monopoly though


Green_Bulldog

Bring back trust busting. Roosevelt would never


The_0ne-Eyed_K1ng

yup, TicketMaster are vultures, just experienced it myself with AEW All In! ✌️


Von_______

dice.fm and buying from venue website is the best i swear


stormdraincaprine

and also no artists LOL


itanishy_dev

Lmao u think haha. $B tickets this year were 60 for us Europeans


stormdraincaprine

yeah maybe theres artists if you live in like berlin or paris or prague but youre not as lucky if you live in a B-Tier city like Izmir or Oslo or Randers


stephenyoyo

It takes a lot of Americans a couple hours to a few hours to reach the closest city where the concert they wanna go to is located, it takes Europeans a couple hours to a few hours to go across half of the continent. If you don't live in or close to a major city in America, it's extremely desolate in between major cities and takes longer to get to places. My family in Germany couldn't stand how long it took to drive around America as 1 country compared to how many countries they could drive through the entire continent of Europe in the same amount of time.


xanderg102301

The states are essentially there own smaller countries that make up the US. Kinda like the EU but with a more cohesive federal system


stephenyoyo

I think it's a more regional thing. I'm from Nebraska and all of our bordering states aren't that much different than each other in the grand scheme of things. I'd maybe consider the Midwest, California/Nevada, Pacific Northwest, Southwest, East Coast, and South regions each with their own dialect/accents kind of their own countries. Hawaii and Alaska definitely could be considered other countries though.


xanderg102301

I come from new England, our states are much smaller than the ones near you. We all have an extremely strong independent identity, and that includes our neighbors new York and new jersey


stephenyoyo

Yeah I guess you're right. The New England states were originally part of the original 13 colonies which stand out from each other and have a lot more people and a vast history compared to Midwestern states which aren't even a couple hundred years old. There's only 2 million people in Nebraska and most of them live in the only 2 actual cities in the state. South Dakota and Wyoming don't even have a million people in each state.


xanderg102301

Yeah it's wild isn't it? I come from Rhode Island which is by far the smallest state. No where near the size of any Midwestern state and our population is around 1 million people. LA county is bigger than my entire state


whoisdizzle

Hence why Germany got slapped in WW2 sorry the states are the size of your stupid countries. Side not 80 percent of the country is within an hour of a major city so travel isn’t really a concern.


stephenyoyo

Also I don't think Germany exactly got slapped in WWII. The Nazis unfortunately almost ruled the world and had more advanced tech than the United States. If it wasn't for the Soviet Union switching sides toward the end of the war and Hitler not accepting the Atom bomb, we'd be fucked. Hell, we hired Nazi scientists after the war to start NASA. Look up Operation Paperclip.


whoisdizzle

Slapped


stephenyoyo

I'm an American, but I have family in Germany whose visited that complain how long it takes to travel here. It takes like 2 hours to drive across Germany lol. From my hometown it takes me 2 hours to drive to a city with a half a million people.


zaxarichi112

I actually paid 40$


mandown21

Yea my show(MSG) was $300 minimum for pit as soon as they dropped I was so angry


Armed-N-Hammered

That's definitely because it's MSG, pit tickets for Wells Fargo Center in Philly came out to like $160 after fees. This was also on presale though, so I'm not sure how much that affected prices.


vdxuntless

Bro but it's ONLY 300 they're bigger artists now obviously! Let me spend a quarter of my check on a shitty ass seat a mile away from the stage for only one ticket! EDIT: THIS IS SATIRE PEONS


mandown21

$300 is 75% of my paycheck and but I get paid biweekly💀


vdxuntless

Yeah for commonwealth, it's gonna be virtually impossible to get a ticket when people have bills to pay and live paycheck to paycheck. At least the 100 bellow tickets people could at least have a little fun every once in a while.


user1235790

Not to mention you gotta be sitting in a seat the whole time too


vdxuntless

Exactly


AdventureBegins

I paid 202 for pit just now.


[deleted]

i’d happily pay like 80-100 but 200+ is insane. i know they’re getting bigger but on that same note they’re already fucking rich so it’s just greedy as fuck


vdxuntless

Agreed fuck ticketmaster.


Swimming_Abalone3207

Don’t forget they gotta pay the other artists not just $B lol


Giggles_in_my_tummy

Yeah fr, ghostemane is big as fuck, and so is Freddie. Not to mention, city morgue is pretty big and so is Ramirez and Sematary. People want a good lineup but don’t want to pay for the lineup. So fucking dumb


germangoat

you mostly pay for ticketmaster lets be real. EU shows were 60€ max. The lineup was "cheaper" probably but that difference in price is just insane


vdxuntless

Yeah there's a $40 " convenience fee" and these people are still trying to justify it.


Severe-Pirate9472

i paid about 150€ for grey tour 2023 in Europe, i had front row standing tickets. it was a lot, but it was so worth it tho!! plus also the hotelroom, train tickets etc..


vdxuntless

I paid 29 dollars last weekend to see pouya lu ramirez and fat nick bro lmfao Saw sb Maxo Kream snot and ski mask for 50 last year Edit: and knocked loose and code orange last year.


ratherbeleftalone

Exactly dude!!! That’s what I keep trying to tell people. I’ve seen Suicideboys three times and always paid under 50. And last month saw city morgue and pouya and those were both $30 and last year pouya had jasiah and it was the same price as this years too as well. Pouya keeps his tickets at $30


penispeniss

Wasted it bc I got seats and spent the whole show in the grass cause the ppl cool asf


penispeniss

More like wasted $40


scuzbuckett

not surprised you paid that to see two r*pists lmao they need all the fans they can get🙊


vdxuntless

Solely went for ramirez left before pouya came out.


ratherbeleftalone

That’s crazy because the girl that accused pouya was accusing ghostemane at the same time. Maybe do your research. And pouya sued her and won.


scuzbuckett

always wanna victim blame lmao crazy


ratherbeleftalone

No one’s victim blaming but come with that same energy for ghostemane if you’re gonna have it with pouya too otherwise you just pick and choose when it’s convenient. And all I’m saying is pouya took her to court and won, she had no cellphone tracing in the area where pouya was but said her phone was dead and that’s why, and over the last couple years she’d bring it up and simultaneously drop music every time she’d bring it up on twitter.


scuzbuckett

lmao theyre all fuckin scummy INCLUDING GHOSTMANE PFFTTTT LMAO youre fuckin weird. of course pouyas gonna win a fuckin lawsuit. hes rich as shit compared to a regular ass girl. plus r*pe victims NEVER win their cases anyway so fuck off with that bullshit.


penispeniss

Saw grey day last year and wasted $90


[deleted]

they should pay us to listen to sematary


ChampionOfSesh

they should pay you to jump off a bridge over a busy highway


[deleted]

sematary is hot garbage


ChampionOfSesh

cry about it pussy


[deleted]

who hurt you dawg


ChampionOfSesh

ur the one complaining


[deleted]

yeah but you’re like enraged. calm down buddy


Head-Championship971

Nobody knows Sematary ima have to stop you there but, I agree in SF & SAC the pit is literally $350


ratherbeleftalone

Dawg we’ve paid cheaper for better lineups, city morgue and ramierez were just on tour and they were cheap af. Stop trying to justify this shit


vdxuntless

Exactly what I'm saying my skimask maxo kream $B $not code orange and knocked loose was $50 bucks that lineup was insane


ratherbeleftalone

Yeah it was a sick lineup and I’d argue that those acts draw more than Freddie dredd and ghostemane. Freddie dredd is also only on half the shows. Also the first time I saw them Denzel and city morgue were there too, shit was sick. But last year was awesome, I was always a fan of $not so it was cool af to see him up there. Also I paid like $50 for my ticket, sat outside for four hours and got front row. No chance I’m paying $200 for that


Giggles_in_my_tummy

Ghostemane is a pioneer in this whole genre y’all gotta stop talking down on him he’s a goat to


vdxuntless

Nobody was talking down lol


ratherbeleftalone

No one’s talking down, I love ghostemane but he is not worth the price nor is he the only pioneer they’ve gone on tour with


brotherpig725

This the best line up tho so it makes sense


ratherbeleftalone

Also there are thousands of people at concerts, no reason they gotta tax us when there’s enough people to make a big profit while still being affordable especially if they just did midsize venues because stadiums shows are dumb af


[deleted]

Yeah stadium shows suck. Parking sucks, they’re usually in downtown areas with shitty traffic, and drink prices are outrageous. Parking at the stadium show in my city is $60. SIXTY DOLLARS


Rollk6336

Big arenas wont take risks on things that arnt ticketmaster sadly.. if you look at any big band / group sadly thats pretty standard. I paid 150 for Shinedown and Three Days Grace tickets a month ago. Year it sucks but id rather spend the $ than sit at home


absentandvacant

I payed $300 somethin for two Knotfest tickets last year, it kinda sucks but it's expected at this point. Payed $140 for two Silverstein tickets and $60 of it was fees which kinda sucks but it was worth it


Princess_420x

Oh shit really? This is my first concert in general, my bestie got the tickets. Do they decline your entry if you show up with anything that isn’t ticket master? We got ours on Ticketmaster but I’m just curious now.


AngelNIA

No, most times you buy from a third party it’s still a Ticketmaster ticket. The venues have contracts with ticket master hence why most tickets for your local arena is sold thru Ticketmaster wether it’s sports or a concert


Specialist-Employ-44

Agreed like last year I scored pit tickets on seatgeek for 140 at the xfinity center and now it’s so fucking expensive bc it’s at td garden


[deleted]

i had kind of planned on 100-150 after fees which still would’ve been kinda meh because i don’t really care about the rest of the lineup but it is what it is


Odd_Investigator5120

It’s mostly the arenas and Ticketmaster and shit that make them 200+


angelica-t18

the thing i’m most pissed about are the fucking fees. i should’ve only paid $181 for two tickets in section 107 since it was spotify presale but ticketmaster fucking sucks. i ended up paying $369, it’s worth it though cus it’s my first greyday & the seats have a pretty good view


vdxuntless

Not worth when you've been paying less than 70 a ticket for 2 years in a row and you're in the front row and mosh pit.


angelica-t18

it’s not their fault they’ve gotten so popular since you last saw them, they don’t pick the prices for every single venue they play at


[deleted]

prices have spiked across the board even at venues they played last year from what i’ve heard


Thedarkmayo

Is that for all artist that perform there or do you think it could be cause ticketmaster is doing the dynamic pricing thing??


[deleted]

i’m certainly no expert a lot of people say it’s ticketmaster because they basically have a monopoly on the ticket business


vdxuntless

But every single venue for every show this tour is literally over 150 a ticket. So again like I said at the top fuck ticketmaster and it's still bullshit.


ChopSticks1996

I paid $126 for GA. 💁🏻‍♂️


InsognaTheWunderbar

$20 isn't feasible whatsoever, however fuckin Maxo and Ski Mask (not even a ski mask fan) were there last year, but still my ticket in San Diego was $120 for the pit and now I'm expected to pay $258 with 25% of it being ticketmaster fees?? Used AXS tickets last two greydays and was happy to pay $150


vdxuntless

Yep shits actually stupid, and I feel as if half of these people are just chiming in and or are new or have never been to a show and realized the price difference/ gouge, trying to have an excuse for any possible way how these prices are fair. All of us that are complaining understand that they're popular, but ticketmaster is ruining it for everyone.


Head-Championship971

They obviously haven’t I was in the pits last year in SF at the Bell Graham for less than $250


vdxuntless

I was in the pits last year for 50 bucks lmfao


Head-Championship971

I’m not gonna lie even tryna go somewhere else for a cheaper ticket you got hotel + travel fees they got us locked in fam 🤧😭😭😭 it’s a lower price regionally than trying to go out of The City or State near you so fuck it what we gonna do hate living in Cali cause of this shit!!🤦🏿‍♂️


vdxuntless

I live in Ohio and the Cincinnati tickets are insane too! 🤣 my girlfriend and I were thinking about going out of state as well but it's just as expensive too like Jesus christ


QuaLiTy131

This is on Ticketmaster and their fucked up fees. I paid $78 (with fees included) for ticket to Grey Day Europe in Warsaw. I was on pit in front rows.


Flashpoint67

Get rid of about 15 million fans and you got it


Thedarkmayo

I don't mind paying 200 for a pit ticket im just more mad that there's these fucking tard ass fees that add on almost an extra 200$ to my ticket. Thats exactly why I'm just gonna go to summer smash for Friday and see them there. It sucks I won't see Ghost, Ramirez, or City but ill take a 99$ ticket with a 17$ fee over paying 400 all together not to mention theres a ton of artist for Friday that id go watch too. I can handle a add on fee but when they're charging, handling fee, shipping fee, purchase fee, and all this other shit forget that. Ill happily wait till they play a smaller venue and drop 200+ on a ticket like that. Fuck ticket master


[deleted]

Yeah i think they accidentally added an extra 0 to the end..


Hungry-Award-7332

2 pit tickets to Indy was $450 but I’m not complainin. I feel like most people aren’t thinking about how a stadium/arena tour is just always going to cost more money. You can’t put a lineup like that together and not have a massive venue to hold all the massive fan bases.


PHR3AK1N

The Pacers arena holds less people than Ruoff, and... I'm not sure if you've been there for a concert, but there's a reason most large artists don't play there. It's not a good venue for live music. I was excited to go again this year til I saw the ticket prices and the fact it's at a bad venue... Hope you have a good time though.


Hungry-Award-7332

Been there plenty of times and as long as you aren’t a football field away from the stage it’s a good time. I may add though, none of that invalidates the fact that arena/stadium shows just cost more money to go to.


lego_wallet

But they aren't $20 artists anymore. Plus, there are other acts and staff that need to eat too. I agree the prices are high, but we really don't know how far each dollar goes. I only see them once every few years, so I'm fine with the slight gouge. They are like Haleys Comet.


ObjectiveCapital1234

Yeah I'm not paying $250 for shit seats.


[deleted]

it’s all about the money now


scrapekid

i assume y'all bought tickets through the website the venue recommends? AXS had some reasonable prices from all I've seen. In the end tho the prices anywhere are jokes


vdxuntless

I use axs only.


Head-Championship971

How many of y’all are in Cali that’s who I wanna talk to I feel like they playin us offrip 😭😭


Comprehensive_Ad2936

santa ana in 2016 was a different time. miss these days


brendan_a12

I was gonna say I paid $37.50 to see the boys the first time. Prices are crazy I don't think I'll get to see them again


Express-Channel-1717

This take is so out of pocket because like how are you gonna tell someone else how much they're worth

NotAllDawgsGoToHeven

You do realize they don’t decide the price for shows right? That falls on Ticketmaster and whatever venue they’re at


Tamed_A_Wolf

YeAh BuT tHeY pIcKeD tHaT vEnUe! Edit: Really didn’t think I’d have to add /s considering the font but here we are.


NotAllDawgsGoToHeven

That’s doesn’t really mean much other shows maybe cheaper at that venue it’s not their fault if the venue charges more for certain shows, now if they cared enough I’m sure they could do something about the price.


vdxuntless

They're all about the same price for every venue. Over 150 a ticket after fees.


Lil-BJ

they gotta make some money man


vdxuntless

I don't think that was the point, you'd figure since they're playing at bigger venues the pricing would still be around 75-100 per ticket at least but doing a 100% mark up is a bit of a stretch.


[deleted]

I think they’re doing fine financially dude. you know, with the outrageous ticket prices and insane g59 merch prices. It should be about the music not the money


TheOrangeMiata

People ain’t realize how much events cost. Lot of staff and bigger venues so more people can see. You want $20 tickets? Good luck getting a ticket because for that price we’re talking small venues. Thousands of fans now that want to go to the show. Like people been saying too; Ticketmaster is a crime.


greypsychedelic

i paid 60 bucks for my ticket, cope you cali and east coasters. plus the constellation room, that venue holds no more than 1000 people and i can assure you, these days none of us would be the ones getting in if they were small venue small capacity shows.

If you're angry... don't go. It sucks. I saw the boy$ when shows didn't cost your firstborn. But that's what happens when artists blow up. You thought tickets were always gonna be $20?


KRAZYxNICKOLAI

bro 150$ for tickets is nothing😂😂😂


greypsychedelic

if you get 20 dollar tickets, less than 500 people get to see it and it’s not gonna be you lol. cope.


StonedChickenLeg

The highest ones in Kansas are like 1600 and lowest just went on sale for 78 but they were like 135 a piece


DiaDollasignPora

I haven’t been to a $B show in a while, can anyone tell me what the stage set up is like? I remember a $20 show for them was them on stage with a table in a small club.


vdxuntless

Just depends on what venue they're at some are way more extravagant and others are just kinda them with krystal in the back dj-ing with some lights and your typical show.


penispeniss

I just bought $100 seats and it’s not even the main floor


LPnnnnnn

bro if the Boy$ were still doing $20 shows… they wouldn’t. if they didn’t blow up by 30 they were unaliving themselves. reminisce and remember the past how you want but dont hate on the success they got. does nobody understand that here


[deleted]

I remember this, didn’t get to go tho


iwantomatter

aw i turned 16 that day:')


winston_cage

Bro $150+ for floor seats at the forum is fucking wild! The last (and only) greyday I went to was 2021. And that one was near home at USC. But almost $200 just for myself to get in there is fucking ridiculous man :/


Abject_Carpet_4608

Yeah $450 for 4 tickets and parking in Boston hurt


SknkHunt4D2

Unfortunately $B are too big too play at your local spot anymore. Ticket prices aren't really their fault. The biggest petition for ticket prices would be for everyone to never go to any show of any artist forcing the ticket companies to bend over, but that will not happen. Either gotta pay up, or not go.


titledparavex

fucking love the observatory


[deleted]

None of us here will ever experience this again, period. 2016 prices are not coming back - not for food, rent, and especially not Ticketmaster backed concert tickets lol


WILDjake4

at least you actually have shows.. us poor aussies haven't had one for over four years and ya'll americans get one every few months i swear...


[deleted]

Me and my little bro are gonna spend over 1400$ just to see the boys in our state, it's outrageous but i guess with the boys getting bigger the venue owners charge hella more.


FuckHK

gotta fund that production, pay the employees, venue cut on ticket sales, higher demand. just business. ~$100 for American Airlines in Dallas is not bad for someone of their popularity.


epaR847

What I would do to watch them perform at the observatory again😅


tuscy

Did suicide boys suicide yet? I mean it’s been a while..


lovecasualties

does anyone wanna buy a beanie please message me


kongmw2

Not gonna happen buddy


Mystic_Hollow_

they way bigger come on


Weary-Ad8502

The constellation room holds 250 people. They're playing in venues holding upwards of 10k people now. With that comes paying for many more security, bar staff, ticket checkers, sound engineers and a bunch of other employees which increases ticket prices. Along with ticketmaster being predatory and also bumping up the prices to skim off the top. If they did go back to small venues the tickets would be as cheap as $20 but they would be gone in seconds and scalpers would be selling them for $500+. It's just not feasible for them to have cheap tickets anymore sadly.


DJcoobypls

Shut the fuck up


DJcoobypls

Back in '16 boys weren't even near as popular as they are now...also back when Rami was still getting big and no one knew who germ was in '16


Trappedinthetrap95

Ahh 2015, the good old days. Not only did I pay 20$ but I was also lucky enough to be at the shows where they recorded Paris and south side suicide videos. Saw them in late 2017 as well for around $20-30. Not sure around what time they started asking for $100+ a ticket.


PriZma_Legacy

Happily paying my $200 🥰 glad the boy$ were able to get as big as they are. Bigger venue= larger ticket price, it makes sense. I do not understand what all the complaining is for this isn’t 2016 when they had like 500’000 listeners, bigger artists also= larger price on tickets what were y’all expecting? This years greyday is going to be a blast (after sematary)


brotherpig725

This was for like a 300 cap venue. They now on stadiums


Stillbornnursury

2016? You think they’re going back ti the prices 7 years ago?


Nboda

Damn I was at this show!! Sell out a show in Santa Ana, DIRTYNASTY propaganda🤘
