Just look at ticket prices on ticketmaster for a US show and compare it to the cost of an international venue.

When I was pricing David Gilmour it was literally cheaper to buy a plane ticket and fly from NY to Rome and go to the show there than get the worst seats in Madison Square Garden.

Because Ticketmaster and it’s venues are a monopoly. Pearl Jam tried to warn us 30 years ago.
