I attended a Gypsy Kings outdoor concert in Napa, it was cold, crowded and super loud. I much prefer classical music indoors in a good venue or a small club for Latin or Jazz music.
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)

One of THE FEW good shows left is the TSO CHRISTMAS SHOW!! You know it will sound great, have a really good light show, and use 2,000 gallons of PROPANE for the shooting fire guns! LOL! The tickets will still be a reasonable cost, and $1.00 of each ticket will be donated to a local charity. The band always seems to be up for the show, not ever doing a walk thru show the times I have seen them. I live near Detroit, so we get to see the East Touring Group, with Chris Cafferty as lead guitar. Always a great show! |
Several years ago while our son was getting his Masters degree in percussion at the University of North Texas, they had a summer jazz festival that we went to. All entertainment was free. Saw Tower of Power, band and sound was fantastic. Just before the Pandemic went to see REO, Don Felder and Styx. All used the same system, but had their own sound engineers. REO's sound was horrible. A total disappointment. Felder and Styx were great. |
@bmbmzig Tower Of Power used to tour with Little Feat (yes I am old). REO has always sounded bad live had the chance to see them in the early 80's |
