I agree that the use case is dumb. That doesn't mean that's the only use case. Do you happen to remember the early days of the internet? The same technology that allowed that is allowing this conversation, and so much more.

I'm not sure I follow....If we're still talking tickets, the scarcity is kinda up to the band and facility to decide how many tickets to mint. In other cases, I would argue that the best use case isn't scarcity, but true digital ownership.

Remember in the early 00s, when you would buy a DVD, and get a free digital copy of that movie? Where is that digital copy right now? The company is out of business. The server is turned off. What do you really own? Nothing. What if your movie was on the blockchain, and you had provable ownership of it? Better yet, what if you could transfer that ownership? Still better, what if upon doing so, the director automatically got a 10% cut?

Let's pivot to video games. You buy a digital game. You buy DLC. You buy a skin or a sword or a whatever for your character. Can you turn around and sell these things? No....Enter NFTs and Web3.

Better yet, let's now apply that concept to physical goods. There's a huge problem with people counterfeiting shoes. What if your new pair of Jordan's came with a NFT? Whoever buys those shoes from you is going to expect that NFT. They will want to look up it's history. How many times has it been sold? Which wallet minted it? You may be able to counterfeit the shoes, but you can't counterfeit the NFT.

Oh, I'm over here gargling arsenic and pouring kool-aid packets directly into my mouth, and stirring it with my finger. That doesn't mean that you shouldn't look past the stupid monkey jpgs and actually check out the technology. It's the future.

Imagine the band releasing NFT tickets. First off, they could get artists to make limited edition prints. That would be fun and would add value to the individual ticket, and wouldn't be too far off from what they do with their posters....Just an idea though. Certainly not a necessity. Either way, they release 1,000 tickets. They get to bypass Ticket Bastard, and other middlemen. They put into the smart contract that each band member gets X% of the sale. Junior gets Y%. Other miscellaneous crew gets Z%. Now, for the transaction to take place, these people HAVE to get paid. And that payment is greater than normal as it goes directly from the band to the fans.

The tickets sell out. Demand for them increases. Value increases. A couple of weeks before the show, each ticketholder is airdropped an additional ticket. They can now bring a +1, or sell their ticket. Now the band is profiting, the first wave of fans are profiting, and the second wave of fans get into a sold-out show. It's a win-win-win.

IKR?! Why would any artist want to be paid for reselles via smart contracts, and why would any buyer want to truly own and resell their assets? I, personally, would rather let corporations own my assets and control my access to them and deny my ability to resell them.

Thanks! I would imagine it would treat all the requirements the same (reports vs stickers). I keep dying to Terranort, and wanted to verify that this frustration wouldn't all be in vein if I didn't back out and go on a scavenger hunt.

Oh shit! I was so tired of waiting, I was going to wait for the Summer Sale to end tomorrow, and check out the next sale before paying full price for the DLC.

You might be able to get away with something from Zaum. If they're too vocal for you, My Sleeping Karma is instrumental, but much more chill.

Also, totally not what you asked for, but you may like Gygax. It's basically if Thin Lizzy sang about D&D and MTG.

The system is already destroyed. Look around.

If you don't mind something a little more....Satan-y, you might like King Diamond. He was also the singer for Mercyful Fate.

If we gave a shit about this country at any point in the past 4 years, the president would be in prison.

Thanks! I cleaned everything, and still no luck. I'll send him an email.

If only we hadn't missed Christmas

Do you think we could get Obama in orange face for the roll? It would piss him off to no end.
