I do not count that as reopening


Sorry

And Seth very much so got on here all the time and told us the sky would fall and concerts would become astronomically high if FSS opened and there was more competition in the area. You’re parroting this line. 

i realize you're quick to dismiss everything seth says out of hand, but basic market theory is undeniable.  just because you don't like the speaker doesn't mean you can ignore supply and demand.

And the reality is, that was ass. DC was consistently much higher than other comparable markets for tickets 15 years ago and now: not so much. A DC show (especially ones at The Clib) much more look comparable to other markets now. Prices did not inflate in DC any quicker than they inflated in Philly just because now IMP had to bid vs someone else. The market doesn’t contain that sort of elasticity.

 
there is a pandora's box of variable that contribute to the historical trends of concert tickets (a highly localized product).  pointing to a single variable and saying it proves why the price of a ticket here is (or isn't) comparable to the price of a ticket somewhere else isn't insightful. you look at philly and see that trend, i look at NYC and i don't see it.

Im going to reply to this when I’m in front of a real keyboard and not on a phone. You’re very much being dishonest about what I’m saying and you don’t understand the natural financial constraints to supply and demand, bro. Now if you’ll excuse me, boarder favorites Julian Baker and Lucy Dacus gotta rock Richmond.

Brooklyn Steel is 1800 capacity so if you think you can move 36,000 tickets that is impressive

These shows will sell out on the first day of onsale. Now accepting wagers.

presale tix sold out immediately.  these are the most rabid fans so you'd expect even higher demand than for the public onsale, but it certainly bodes well for my prediction.  apparently three of the shows are exclusive AMEX cardholder-only shows, all tickets were available this morning, and all sold out.  sounds like a sizeable portion of the tix went on sale today.

Talk about corporate sellout…. That’s a bit gross for me….shows specifically for AMEX holders? Might make for some great preshow banter

Calculating the Marriott Bonvoy points you have accumulated with the ticket purchase while listening to Losing My Edge is classic losing of one's edge.

Titanium and Titanium Ambassador are the highest publicly accessible levels in Bonvoy. Only surpassed by Cobalt (which requires CEO approval) and 5-Star which requires Mr Marriott himself signing off.

What about my Cracker Barrel Large Gut Club Card.  I got points, baby.
