There has to be a time when the system just 'breaks' and the number of people going to concerts goes down dramatically. 

I agree.  How are there 20,000 people in a given city willing to give Drake that kind of money.  (He isnt even any good)

Also drake decided to make everyone poor.  Thats regular price. Not platinum pricing. Upper levels got up to $300-$400 too when dynamic kicked in. Lowers were $1000

Its the sheer gall of asking for 400$ 'service' after spending 2000$ on tickets. 

I suppose the purchaser should actually be 'grateful' its a $4 process fee ( which, lets be honest is a joke anyway).

Its way beyond the time governments/authorities should be looking at this..

The government/authorities arent going to do anything.. higher income, means higher tax, means greater revenue...

It is simply down to fans. Dont pay those prices. Support small venues and upcoming bands. Sooner or later Drake (or any other greedy fecker) will be yesterdays news and if we dont support small venues/bands the next Drake wont get an opportunity... and you know what, the people you go and see will be really grateful you are there.!

If 100 of those paying fans per city put $100 in each and use it to feed homeless folk on the same night as the gig, they would get local media coverage and it would soon start showing the bastards up.

I personally refuse to pay £100 for any gig. (So Blur can do one!)

and before anyone points out £350 for Glastonbury.... With my ticket, caravan, petrol, food and bars I will spend closer to a grand than £500... but it is a weeks holiday..

Just stop feeding these twats. It annoys the shit out of me.

    • Thomas Partey, knocked back by Canadian immigration now.
    • I'm sure someone can update you on the clashfinder, and it will be pretty accurate by the time the festival comes around. It's a large flat-ish arena with main stage in the open air, no best side I'd say. Leadmill (3rd stage medium tent) is at the back of the main arena, T'Other (2nd stage big tent) 5 min walk round the corner. At full capacity walking around can take a bit more time though. I noticed that The Enemy are scheduled to not fully overlap with Wolf Alice, so you could catch part of their set too.   You can walk around anywhere with a beer, with most bars the usual mass market stuff, but one nice craft ale tent, back of the arena near the Leadmill stage. A main meal will set you back £10-15, but cheaper snacks also available. Expect a pint to be £7-8. Possibly a bit more this year as prices everywhere are increasing.   It's fairly easy to get to from the town centre using the tram, although can be busy at peak times / very busy at curfew. If you like a walk, it's approx 40 mins to Kelham Island (lots of indy venues) and probably an hour to the city, or catch an Uber. There will be loads of 'fringe' music events on around the city right through the weekend. Most are free. Have a wonderful trip, enjoy the festival, and your stay in our city! 
    • I think people on a place like this, that clearly value live music more than most, don't. I'd rather an academy than an arena every day. But I could see a few people that care about "the gram" than the actual music wanting an arena experience even if it's a mid sized band. 
    • The single worst shout for any slot on any stage in the history of efests. Worse even than the Wursels or The Wombles.    Unlikely I’d be there, but okay with the other two. Boy George is a class act, plus he could DJ in Block 9    
    • Do people want an arena experience though? Especially for sub par bands. Rather a band do more nights at an independent venue for more money than 1 big one.
