I was looking into why I just don’t see cover bands at my local venue but this hits a bit deeper at the issue.

I wonder if how niche music tastes have become has something to do with it.

    Maybe it’s the fact that it’s so fucking expensive to do anything, forcing us inside which is reenforcing itself rather cyclically. It is really hard to get excited about things when you don’t have the funds to go out and do things. I am older but would be going out way more to events if I didn’t cringe at the money I know I will be dropping on these nights out. Third real world spaces are dearly needed and people are getting priced out of them. I used to go out to music events at least once a week ten years ago.

        I donno why my city hates public pavilions so much.

        Ok I know why it’s because they hate the poors that hangout there.
