Ticketmaster and Live Nation have destroyed the concert experience. But it didn’t use to be this way. Today, Oasis and Taylor Swift tickets might go for thousands of dollars, but back in 1955, you could see Elvis Presley in concert for less than the modern-day equivalent of $20.
I was at that free Ozzfest. Shit was sick AF. How were they even making money? Merch and booze sales?
It must have been all that. I’m sure I bought something while there. It was only done one year so maybe they didn’t make enough money.
