Never have I been more glad that I mostly follow Japanese bands nowadays and live close enough to Japan that I can drop by for concerts at reasonable prices. Ticketmaster has completely fucked up the pricing where I live. Fuck Live Nation and Ticketmaster.
I don’t follow Japanese bands, but I find smaller artists, smaller venues, is a great way to avoid TM/LN. It’s also a great way to see a better show, bigger venues just suck, the crowds suck, the logistics suck, I suck, everyone and everything sucks.
