Paying 1k to see another human just like dance and sing is kind of insane.
00:05
For like Taylor Swift, I would have paid probably like £100 maximum.
00:10
But for Oasis, I'd pay a bit more.
00:12
Definitely feels like they're way too expensive and it's really prohibitive for us.
00:16
We wouldn't think about going to see bands at that sort of price.
00:20
No.
00:20
My favourite artist is like Kendrick.
00:23
And when I went to see him, I paid like £30 for standing tickets.
00:26
Like the night before, I got a really good deal.
00:28
So I think that's the most I've paid.
00:30
I'm struggling to spend £60.
00:32
I think I'm wanting to be about £30, £40.
00:35
They can't really control how much it is.
00:38
It's more like the arena that controls it.
00:40
But I think they are quite expensive.
00:43
I think it's more not the artist that's responsible for it,
00:46
but like the venue and everything else.
00:48
I'd much rather go and see, you know, a band play in a small venue,
00:53
just a small amount of fans.
00:54
It's just a little too much.
00:58
Yeah.
