    $659 for a one night gig…

    You can get a week pass to a festival for cheaper…

    A fool and his money are easily parted

      I guarantee that there is entertainment that you spend money on that other people find foolish.

      I think the “full” here is the one who can’t fathom that others value things differently from themself.

      Also, her money*. It’s in the summary

      The average ticket price for her tour 2023 was 1088$

      Whoever pays prices like this is completely lost

      I got drawn in the lottery to be able to buy tickets for athletic events at the Olympics in Paris. For the events I liked to see, I had the choice of a 860 and 980 euro ticket… so with the two of us, that would be as much as a week long holiday to the Canaries. So we passed. We’re gonna watch the marathon, which is free :-)
