A lot of people seem to be insulted by that fact (well, not a TON, but a significant amount). I think it's silly. Some of the best, even the most popular, artists in the world play in small or medium-sized venues because it makes shows more affordable for fans. Can you imagine the price of going to see Utada in a stadium show? Sure, it might pay off in some way, but all of the excess tech work and booking amounts would skyrocket the ticket prices. Especially since I'm probably going to be paying for four tickets, medium-sized is good for me. One of those venues even has Lady GaGa slated to appear. Smart artists know that if they want to sell out concerts and really reach their fans they have to make efficient choices. It doesn't matter how popular or talented they are, fans will see what fans can afford. And in this economic situation, fans can't afford large-venue tickets to see relatively small-time (at least domestically) artists. That might work for Hikki in Japan, but here in the U.S., less really is more. That's my rant on that. I'm off to rehearsal. When I come back, there better be an LA spot announced or I'm going to eat my cat! Are you listening Miley Cyrus- I mean Hikaru Utada? D< |
