People are fucking insane for spending that sort of money for an opportunity to spend a couple of hours in extreme crowd just to barely see a billionaire singer and barely hear the songs. Its even worse since they are clearly getting fucked by corporations at the same time

I mean... I wouldn't do it. But I have spend insane money on other stuff I feel like it's a not that crazy amount. And to each it's own....

The fees they charge as part of it... that's another thing that I agree they are bastards.
