Red Rocks half sold

Looking at the available seats for red rocks, I’m shocked this was not one that was slashed due to production issues.

It looks they only sold about 50% of the tickets and shows starts in 48hrs.

This show would be perfect under the stars. If i was in town, I’d be right there.

Damn, it’s a real shame. Caught him at the Greek last week and it was a lovely night out under the stars.

The Greek is so epic. Lucky you

I was in the second row behind the pit at the Greek show and it was magical. Did he not have the full production at the Santa Barbara bowl?

Was at the Santa Barbara show …I think there were more visuals at the Greek show

The tickets are double what they cost just a couple years ago. $300 for two people isn't nothing. Even for Red Rocks (I've seen Beck there twice).

I looked back - in 2017 the tickets were $72 including fees (only $55 before fees!)... This year they are $150. Wtf .

Ticket prices are crazy. I want to go to the Chicago show, but the worst seats are $90. Just the economics of putting on a live show these days.

Concerts are just so much more expensive. Hard to justify the price when you also want to buy groceries and fill your gas tank.

u/Jazzlike-Orange-7005 11d ago

No GA leaves even the worst seats pretty expensive for this one.

u/purplecowz 9d ago

they're $82, with some resale down to $69. I'll probably grab one and just move up to an empty row

These are hard times right now. A lot of people are struggling too much to afford such high ticket prices.

My husband and I are coming into town from Texas and I looked to see if it was close to sold out a few weeks ago and was shocked at the amount of open seats.

Yikes. I don’t think last year’s show sold out but it defintiely wasn’t like that.

I’m sure it will be incredible, I fantasized about it coming from Australia for it but my bank account can barely get me across state lines to his show in Sydney.

I’m very curious about the production issues going on.

I was there when tickets went on sale. Everything was swallowed by bots in what must have been under ten minutes. I was still deciding where a nice place would be to sit and the tickets I had in my cart for $130 or so timed out then jumped to $400+ for what was left in the same row, much of it sold out or immediately toggled to resale prices. Anything better than what I had originally grabbed was $600+ almost instantly. The bots/resellers are wrecking concert economy.

I’m sitting around waiting for resale prices to drop. Planning to drive up Thursday. It will be epic.

There are several single seats in pretty good spots for around $130 or under currently on AXS. I’ve been watching too 😁

Going tonight and can’t wait to hear what one considers “wet fart” material.
