    Would anybody pay $200+ to see U2?

    sigh apparently…

    A bunch of my friends were stoked for the warped tour revival crap and I’m over here like “some of those bands haven’t practiced in five years… Go see someone currently good.”

    It ain’t like there’s a shortage, but hype and name recognition is all some people care about.

    “yeah, they sucked”

    Wouldn’t they…?

      I literally can’t get my wife to consider the idea of going to see a band we dont know. Theres apparently a lot of social expectation to going to shows.

          Yeah I was just adding why some might look for those popular names when going to concerts.

          They are all far too expensive, so we just dont go to any shows! Anyone have a spare 1000$ so two people near a major city can see a show this year?

            “It’s not who you’re seeing, it’s who you’re seen with.”

            I loathe those kinds of people.

            They have as much substance as gear oil. Gotta find a celebrity to appear relevant!

            Ugh.
