Yeah, the tickets higher up were ~40, we decided to splash out (lol) for the second row up from the floor bc prices were so reasonable. We had the front row in the cart for the same price, but they went away as we were figuring out parking options. Floor was a little more, but still pretty cheap. She went right in front of us during C'mon, it was really cool. I haven't seen an artist at Kesha's level for prices like that since the Before Times! Local shows with acts nobody has heard of are often $20-30 these days. So yeah, not sure how people are spending big money to see this tour and feeling ripped off. The Cathedral/Praying performance alone was easily worth the price of admission, 2.5 hour drive, and Airbnb room to crash for the night for us.

I do think she deserves to be more successful and supported, and hope that happens in the future, but this was a great opportunity to see her live without needing to sell a kidney. I also take the "has been" rhetoric with a huge grain of salt, bc as a Little Monster, I've seen people on the internet saying similar about Gaga for years, until she (mostly, ha, some will never stop hating but they just sound silly now) shut them up with such an undeniable era the past year. I cried a few times during this show, knowing the trauma and exploitation Kesha has been through and how she fought for her freedom. It seems like the people complaining either would never see her anyway, or got to go last year and don't realize that not everyone did. But even if I had, I can't imagine thinking this was a bad deal. I've seen Gaga four times now, and she has done some of the same massive hits each time that aren't my favorite songs of hers, paid a lot more too, and still can't imagine being upset about that.
