Post Malone/Jellyroll concert at Jack Trice
- Thread starter JP4CY
- Start date
Concert tickets nationwide are down. Ticketmaster is pricing themselves out of the market. People used to be able to afford going to 4-5 concerts a year, now they have to save up and generally attend 1-2 instead.
There is a KFAN morning host who is the lead singer in a band. He said they have no control over ticket prices. Ticketmaster has used realtime data to adjust prices as demand increases. He said the tickets started for $20 for a show and he got a call from a fan asking why they were charging $50.
Most ticket prices scare me off pretty quickly.
This is why most of Garth's concerts are cool.
I've been to a few that he capped at like $75.
I’m listening from the parking lot. The echo is really bad. Don’t think it was this bad for Luke Combs. Curious if it’s echo-y inside as well.
Probably a different setup. Combs stage was on the 50. If I remember correcty this concert the stage is in the endzone.
We just left the Cafe, and heard someone singing. Don't recognize song or voice.
My wife said the same thing. I think the sound would be better on the south side.
I’m glad Iowa State is hosting concerts again. It was crazy that there was basically none for a lot of years. In the 1980s there were lots in Hilton and some in Jack Trice.
Asked and answered many times. No. Concert beers are more expensive. Unless they change the pricing, Sukup is like $8 or $9 for 16oz at football games.
FWIW the Combs concert was far better (and I am not really a fan of any of the music by the big names).
Sound was better (Post and JR had too much bass and it was hard to hear their voices and the lyrics).
Then Post came out in Hawkeye gear which went over like a wet fart in church - he finally took his shirt off midway through after his crew told him.
The concert was mostly full but not as many as George Strait and definitely not as much as Luke Combs.
For us it didn’t help that we were sitting in front of a group of self absorbed college girls that were spilling drinks and kept kicking our seats and dancing and hitting us.
TM had tickets at half the price of what they originally went on sale for right up until the concert started. Someone said that TM is getting bad for pricing and I can attest. Tried to sell a parking pass on TM, put my price down (under face). Go to look at the listing and TM decided to apply reference based pricing and sell my below face pass for $50 above face- WTF…… now I see why no one was interested.
I think it is fair to say they won’t be going to any more of their concerts.
