[Music News] Beyoncé is selling $157 “listening only” tickets for her Renaissance tour. The seats are behind the stage, so you can’t see the concert, any of the set, or dancing. (finance.yahoo.com)

Summary: "Beyoncé is selling “listening only” tickets for her Renaissance tour. The seats are behind the stage, so you can’t see any of the set or dancing, but they only cost $157 compared to the ~$900 fans have been paying for regular US tickets."

the new VIP tickets will be listening from under the stage and having the opportunity to catch glimpses of the performance through the floorboards

Man, imagine grabbing the cheapest tickets to the concert and not realizing...

Shoulda known your place lol

I wouldn't ever pay 100 bucks to see beyonce. If you pay so much, it's your choice. You are the dumb person, not them.

everyone is going to realise how shit she sounds.

Wow can I be like you when I'm in highschool?

Stuff like that doesn't really bother me. I would never pay that much to not see her, but she is probably one of the most popular musicians of this century. It is only natural that opportunities to hear her live have a high scarcity and prices rise to whatever people are willing to pay for it. If you don't like paying you can chose to listen to artists that have lower ticket prices or if you want to listen to Beyonce you can do so for free at home.
