You know that other factors exist than just the most basic fundamentals, right? because you’re acting like you don’t.
Things are priced to sell
Things are priced to profit. When the combination of a popular/arguably necessary commodity and little to no competition lets them, companies will exploit that to abuse people for extra profit.
Not buying IS an option
It’s not a GOOD option, though, and not one that anyone should be coerced into rather than reining in abusive corporations that break the law.
no one is forcing you to attend the gig, if the price is too high, then don’t go.
No one is forcing companies to abuse people either. That you think depriving people of entertainment is a better option than upholding the law by doing something about abusively profiteering corporations says a lot about you, none of it good.
We could argue all day. I take a principled stand of refusing to participate in things that I view as unfair.
If you and others continue to contribute to a system that you view as unfair, knowing that you don’t have to, that’s something you have to come to terms with yourself.

And I’m arguing that it would be more principled to take steps to stop the abuse by holding the abusers accountable than to make it the responsibility of the victims to affect change by depriving themselves needlessly.

Yeah, because “either don’t enjoy music live or it’s your fault” isn’t victim blaming at all, nuh-uh! 🙄
He seems to believe that poor people don’t deserve live music events. Only good for the rich, us poor workers have to keep on working so our bosses can have entertainment.
It would only take one or two big tickets gigs to not sell to see prices come down.
If people are fine paying that price, there’s no problem.
That’s just factually inaccurate. Also an extremely unrealistic and unfair demand of the victims of exploitation.
They aren’t but they don’t have a choice. That’s the point.
You can refuse to accept basic economics if you want, I can’t make you. Things are priced to sell, it’s as simple as that
Go back to comment 1. Not buying IS an option, no one is forcing you to attend the gig, if the price is too high, then don’t go.

Good luck to you.
