Stringbuzz I dont understand crapping on Henley though.

As someone who runs a venue, I hear every day about the frustrations of fans who waited a little too long or didnt even have a chance because the bots beat everyone to the punch.

Tyler Childers is likely, as you said, an arena-level artist; but his main concern could be aesthetics, and not necessarily the money, the prestige, or whatever awards may come his way. Another bride-to-be says the Renaissance Boston Patriot Place Hotel, located within a shopping and entertainment complex next to the stadium, wants to jack up her hotel rates in light of the concert. Well, maybe saying it feel off a cliff is hyperbole. Shows are never sold out even when theyre sold out. As soon as Turnpike started booking much bigger venues and more dates, demand leveled off and everything worked much more smoothly for fans. Its obvious Tyler doesnt want to become a human jukebox. That is officially out of control. November 18, 2022 @ Swift still has not announced any overseas dates for 2023. A+ talent for a fair and sometimes downright cheap price and I absolutely enjoy it. I believe he is maturing just fine. On November 12th, the Turnpike Troubadours headlined their first arena, selling out the Paycom Center in Oklahoma City. Although, I have been much better at saying no. Maybe longer. Kevin Smith I paid $85 in fees for two Springsteen tickets for a show in Milwaukee next March.

Do you think this is a sign that the Nashville establishment is embracing Billy? She made her screen debut in the television adaptation of Danielle Steel's romance novel Sky high fees and pricing is another, especially when done by questionable practices. Fans who bought tickets for heavily hyped shows such as BTS, Blink-182s reunion tour and next years tour with Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band were confronted with, and outraged by, Ticketmasters new dynamic pricing model, in which prices for what are called Platinum Tickets fluctuate based on demand, akin to surge pricing for Uber. But, now I feel like a prick for calling you bitter. There is always tickets available. November 17, 2022 @ Exactly this. Required fields are marked *, Notify me of follow-up comments via e-mail. I got tickets to the Tyler show in Arkansas.Loved Purgatory, its a hall of fame record and Tyler talking about sobriety has helped me with mine. November 18, 2022 @ Tyler is an arena artist and should be playing arenas. I will just say I saw Tyler Childers and sturgill Simpson at the Charlotte coliseum on what may have been the last performance before they canceled the tour (in retrospect it was probably a bad idea to go that given what we could have already known about covid) and I thought it was pretty bad. The exception is her climactic stand in L.A. Aug. 3-9, where she takes a two-day break after the initial three nights before coming back for the final two shows at SoFi. I retweeted this from a reader of mine yesterday, and it went viral: The only way to stick it to Ticketmaster is to go see more live, local music. 10:57 am. However, I wasnt necessarily nonplussed by those who did decide to take the plunge. BTS member Jung Kook is set to perform at the opening ceremony on Nov. 20 at Al Bayt Stadium in Doha, and he will also participate in the World Cups accompanying soundtrack. This is incorrect. November 25, 2022 @ 100 miles from our destination or tailgating we are checking the Vivid, Stubhub, TickPick, Ticketmaster apps looking for seats. In the least gatekeep way possible, this music isnt for everyone. November 22, 2022 @ I know folks dont like going to arenas or bigger venues. I probably had a head start with this kind of thinking because I worked in the business for years and vendors never came through with comp tickets or confirmed our names were on the list until the day of the show. November 18, 2022 @ More power to him. The frat bros who love Feathered Indians arent going to love the rest of his catalogue, and his real fans arent going to love seeing TC in a too-big venue for fluff fans. 8:00 pm, tesi hoptowntiger94 Anybody else geeking out over the Garrett T. Capps & NASA Country album? I have been fortunate to see Tyler Childers live three times. They are fans, and they connect with these artists. Ditching out on your bridesmaid duties in order to scream along with Blank Space is brutal, but thats what Taylor made them do. November 18, 2022 @ 8:52 am. Remember, making fun of Swift fans is just mean. I mostly see lesser-known acts (several hundred in the last decade), but Ive found that patience and observation create opportunities to see big artists for very affordable prices, too. Maybe this all could have been avoided if we just listened to Pearl Jam. So Childers has shown a willingness to play arenas in the past. I dont envy the position indie superstars are in one bit. 2:25 pm.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi). So I dont have a gauge for what is going on with other fans. November 18, 2022 @ He booked an entire arena tour with Sturgill Simpson before it got cancelled due to Covid, and they only played a few dates. These venues are built for sporting events, they never were and still arent built for concerts. The Turnpike Troubadours had a long touring history of barely filling theater-sized venues to capacity. That show at Rupp was a benefit and that tour with Sturgill that I, like many others missed when they postponed and then cancelled it had some very bad reviews of the sound plus Tyler was an opening act on both.

Based on this comment section, I am far from alone at not being into arena shows. But many people want to know their plans months in advance and plan accordingly. 7:22 pm. I know my comment last night lacked a bit of nuance because I was typing on my phone at the end of a long day, but Ive also learned if youre *too* nuanced nobody really engages with a respectful debate. Your comment seems more steeped in the fear of change and bros than the natural progression of an artists growth and ensuing success (and facts). And then theres the community that fans find between each other. Make it to where a sizeable portion of the tickets have to be purchased in-person or physical tickets have to be mailed to an address. I agree that band may be playing Eagles songs (plus Joe Walsh, James Gang and Don Henley songs) but they sound nothing like The Eagles. Nope, not going, at all. November 17, 2022 @ What's remarkable is how Swift has accumulated a record number of dates for a stadium tour without expanding the original numbers of cities in the routing, and keeping the appearances more or less to one weekend at a time. 6:27 am. Let them do all the work, incur the debt and all the risks and Ill swoop in day off and get my tickets if the conditions are conducive. @Trigger I dont even think this article or you in particular are responsible for this phenomenon. Things just went awry because it's Taylor Swift, And its not like she could just play smaller venues when she easily sold out what she had booked as is. November 17, 2022 @ I know we never give awards for posts of the year on here but Kevins will come in as one of my favs for 2022. The company said in a statement that historically unprecedented demand resulted in intermittent issues that the company was urgently working to fix. We could solve some of this by not buying tickets from resellers. Neil Youngs Potatoes But once they saw how high demand was, the Turnpike Troubadours began booking much bigger venues and this issue wrinkled itself out. If no one bought tix from the scalpers they would be out of business tomorrow. I am a huge, and I do mean huge, fan of both those artists and they happen to share a lot of music together. So I have to go to him. (Read more about Bantons history with the American legal system here.) 3,500), and the Arizona Financial Theatre in Phoenix (cap.

Ticket sales for Taylor Swift's upcoming tour have not gone, in the words of the chart-topping singer, all too well. There are plenty of Swifties who paid the high price and dont regret it, even going so far as to reprimand other fans who do. More people = more idiots trying to be an idiot, in a public setting, ruining something for others. Saw the Eagles with Deacon Frey. 10:17 am. Nor do I dispute the need for fans to be satisfied, or artists wouldnt even be able to perform in clubs or traditional concert venues, let alone stadiums or arenas. Not only did the news open the door for a future performance, it came at midnight, which just so happens to be when Swift has been dropping hints about her upcoming album, Midnights a perfect promotional vehicle for a forthcoming T-Swift halftime show. They all go on sale in a few hours. Michael Tedder is a breaking news writer for TheStreet. Im all for the guys we love getting paid for their hard work.

And that could happen soon but it would more likely happen in spring or even summer for some of these dates. It was mind-blowing. Tyler Childers is an arena level artist. Swift stands poised to possibly break that US single-engagement record, too, even with fewer shows. The Eagles in 2018. Childers is booked some bigger venues as well, but the lack of some dates in certain major markets means fans are also planning to travel to other markets to see him, spiking demand even more for the dates that have been announced. Di Harris And what happens if fans still get shut out? They defy physics! After fans speculated that Taylor Swift would perform the Super Bowl 2023 halftime show due to a new Apple Music sponsorship, reports shot down the rumors. The Eagles died with Glenn Frey. Yes, the concert ticket system in the United States is beyond broken, and LiveNation has been running the risk for years of government intervention as they seem unwilling and/or unable to address the issue themselves.

Theres absolutely nothing not organic about Childers success (as you suggest). Just Imagine the All Too Well Short Film (Guillermos Version). The way Garth Brooks dealt with this problem when he came out of retirement was to scale the amount of performances in a given market to whatever demand was. If tickets were selling out fast, hed add a second date, or even a matinee performance on a weekend, sometimes playing the same arena four or five times, and cutting into the resale market by selling non-transferrable tickets. But at least at the moment, dynamic pricing doesnt seem to be the cause of the ticket price sticker shock. This will also significant favor more affluent fans who wont blink twice at pulling the trigger on $350 tickets, while average Joes just cant even fathom that price tag get locked out.

To some fans of the popular acts the system is broken but to the artist the seats will be mostly full and the tix all get sold so how is it broken? Either the venue, or TM, or resellers will have tickets available a few minutes before shows. 07:58 PM (IST), A poster of Taylor Swift The Eras Tour. But the same issue that Tyler Childers fans are facing is the same one Taylor Swift fans are facing. The band boycotted Ticketmaster for a while, but eventually relented, as the company is practically the only game in town for major acts. Speaking of arena level artists, Trig did you see that Billy Strings has a prominent feature on an upcoming Dierks Bentley single? Bought a ticket at the door and got a seat about 10 feet away from him.
