Original Note:
Concert ticket price increases in the US vs globally can be blamed on the unregulated resale market, the COVID-19 Pandemic, inflation, and Ticketmaster-Live Nation's monopoly over the ticketing industry. Attributing industry-wide issues to one touring act is inaccurate. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-department-sues-live-nation-ticketmaster-monopolizing-markets-across-live-concert https://www.apolloacademy.com/sharp-increase-in-the-costs-of-going-to-music-concerts-after-the-pandemic/ https://www.thepostathens.com/article/2024/03/concert-tickets-inflation-prices-vendors-ticketmaster-taylor-swift https://variety.com/vip/concert-ticket-pricing-resale-market-1235790923/
