breaking down the Live Nation monopoly (and how it's destroying the touring economy for both fans & artists)

Lots of artists voluntarily sign into those Live Nation exclusive deals for the big pay day and ultimately the fans pay for it. Live Nation needs a competitor that isn’t local venues.

This shit was wild to hear how far it’s gone

Genuine question, is your problem with them the fees and treatment of artists/lack of alternatives for venues? I’ve never fully understood the outrage with the Taylor Swift stuff last year, if people wanna pay $1000 a ticket they’re going to. Agree fees are out of control tho
