Concerts shouldn‘t be a big business, it‘s supposed to be about a connection between an artist and her fans.

First and foremost, it's about an artist making a living, and to that end, figuring out at what price point she can make the most money.

If you want to go to a cheap concert, become a fan of artists that people richer than you don't like.

This contradicts the egalitarian ethos most musicians and their fans espouse.

Well sure, that's part of TM's value add. Musicians can get the money they want without damaging their brand.

I would like to question the "most" there though. Maybe egalitarianism is a strong theme in your preferred genre. Mine is more "get money, get paid" and "bitches aint shit".

Good point! Definitely had blinders on when I wrote that.
