re: I don't see how going to a concert where you have to watch it on a screen is fun

Two rows from the stage cost me $85/ ticket.
That's pretty darned reasonable - I'm actually surprised.

Well your op said it seems like a waste of time and money, while you just admitted it was fun even though they looked like ants. If your point is it’s more fun being up close then duh, but that’s not what your op said

The point you are purposely overlooking is that it was not as fun as it could have been since we were so far away.

football is a horrible analogy - I've been to lots of football games and watched from the nosebleeds and it was fine. A better example if the Final Four - if you get more than club level away the ball and players look tiny. In fact, in football it's better to be high up most times bc you can see all the stuff going on bc it's happening across 50 yards most plays.

Well some people might not want to pay an assload of money for up close seats. It doesn’t mean it’s a waste of time or money if they’re still having fun

OP, what did you do last night that was fun?
Posted on 5/1/22 at 8:28 am to stout
Sat in 230 and I could see Garth out of breath from my seat

In the first 10 rows you can't see over the players on the sidelines - I like to be about row 40, although higher up is fine too. If you understand the game and know the players it doesn't really matter - but I definitely don't want to be too low.

Not a lot because I worked on a flip house all day. Too tired.
About to go back and work on it some more today too.
None of that negates my opinions.

I said the same thing last night when I saw video clips. What's the point of going to sit in the upper areas?
You couldn't pay me to go to that concert last night

It's official, they could be giving out free hand jobs and a beer and someone would fricking complain here.

Well you should attend a concert that has screens to watch it. Depending on where you are sitting, it allows you to see what you can't see.. Its like having the option to what a zoomed in version.
Why would this be a big deal? Its not like you can watch it on TV. You can go to the concert and not watch the screens.
And there is more to a concert than just hearing the music. If that was the case why go to the concert when you can just stay home and listen to the music? Its the experience, the energy, etc.
Some of you are miserable.

Well, I don't drink beer and it would depend on who was giving the HJ.

I'm curious - another poster said he got tics for $50 - what did that get you at this concert? How much would it cost to get a tic where you could actually see Garth?
I was offered suite tickets for $100 each. Tickets were very reasonable for this show.

I think it's about the energy and experience of a concert but I will say that tiger stadium seems like a bad place for a concert.
Let me quote Lou Graham to that captures the essence of the desire to see a concert like that:
I don't want to deal with the crowds anymore, in my old age, but I went to a lot of concerts in my younger days. Generally enjoyed all of them. I do prefer smaller venues, though.

Standing in the rain, with his head hung low
Couldn't get a ticket, it was a sold out show
Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream
He heard one guitar, just blew him away

Stout, did you go?
The concession lines sucked but outside of that, everything in the stadium was enjoyable. The energy in the stadium with so many people singing along, sitting next to my wife and 8 year old daughter, dancing and singing with them, belting out song after song was awesome.
I get it, it wasn’t intimate with the artist, but it was with two people that I love deeply. We got to know the people next to us, and had a blast chatting it up.
I get it, not everyone likes large crowds and some people don’t want to attend a concert where they can’t touch the band, but the show and the environment was awesome.
