With how expensive everything is getting I am being more strict on purchasing concert/entertainment tickets. If it's something I really want to see I don't mind splurging once in awhile. There's so much good content out there you can watch on Netflix, Amazon, YouTube etc right from your couch
And I agree as for live music there's alot of much better smaller scale shows you can go to that are great without having to pay $300 to sit in the nosebleeds at a bad venue to begin with
