Is anyone here still into live concerts these days?


Concert Ticket Prices Are Expected to Keep Rising in 2025 and Beyond

keeps me wondering if it's even worth it anymore (smaller live music venues excluded as they don't typically charge as much)

Every chance I get. Love small venues, Jazz and Blues clubs. I travel quite a bit and always look to see who will be in town for a weeknight show. 

Try and go to 3-4 a year Red Rocks of course and smaller venues but very picky since prices are so high these days

I quit going to shows in 2020 when COVID hit and I've never really gone back; I used to be good for 20 - 30 gigs per year, but I'm also 73 years old now! So I'm mostly content to watch live shows on my sound and video system. Unless I personally know any of the performers, in which case I'll come out to support them. When they started having this variable seat pricing business with Ticketmaster, I found that so frustrating I quit going to large shows even before 2020.
