[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How are the prices looking for Pittsburgh?[/quote]

Terrible just like Philly. $1200 for restricted view behind the stage.

The smugness of people who got face-value tickets is vomit-inducing. I had a pre-sale code too. I sat in the queue for 8 hours too. So did a lot of people. Its not like we didn't try or jump through the hoops. And our kids are just as heart-broken. I'm so over the smugness that we somehow didn't try as hard as those who got tickets. [/quote]

Mine, too. Hours and hours - including the site kicking her back out into the queue when she had floor seats in her shopping cart. Even I cried that day, and I’m not a Swiftie. She was devastated.

Sorry you are sad, but this feels a bit over the top. People in other countries love Taylor Swift, but she's never going to go there, so they enjoy her music from afar.

Use the money you saved by not getting tickets to enjoy her music other ways. Spend it all on merch. Or discover other acts to follow, because many of them are just as good but just haven't received the same hype. [/quote]

But those people’s close friends and family aren’t blasting their own attendance all over social media. DD’s friends who are going are showing no restraint or tact at all. Just talking about it constantly before and after. It’s pretty insensitive. At least it’s a life lesson to DD to be more mindful of others feelings. [/quote]

OK, so this is more of a FOMO situation.

Use it as a teaching moment about how social media manipulates young people and about how the music promotions industrial complex manipulates fans to maximize profits.

Use it as an opportunity to teach your daughter to develop her own tastes and discover new music.

It's a concert, where fans are squashed into a stadium with poor sound quality to watch a mega millionaire in the far distance make more mega millions off them.
