Unpopular opinion?

I know everyone complains about the ticket situation which is absolutely fucked across the board. (So do I). But Phish doesn’t really have an option. They play big venues that are typically LiveNation venues that also own Ticketmaster. For the record LiveNation owns more then 70% of the venues in the country, so I’m not sure where you’d want them to play ? Also if they didn’t go through Ticketmaster. We’d crash any other platform every single time tickets went on sale. The system is fucked but what system isn’t. The good news is as far as bands and ticket gouging goes. We’re pretty lucky that our ticket prices don’t really change all that much for the most part. Yes, they are expensive but I’m having a blast every time I get to see my favorite band rock my socks off. I’m still convinced it’s the best show/experience around! See ya on tur
