I received an email from Ticketmaster when tickets for how local show went on sale, and I was just curious how well they were selling, so I logged in. There were still plenty left, but they were selling much better than I was expecting… but then I noticed the prices. $60 for lawn and $200-$500 for pavilion seating. But then I noticed the front 2 rows, $4k-$5k… and they were almost all sold out.
This has to be a money laundering scheme, right? No one is actually paying that to see Kid Rock, right?
They might have reserved most of them for promotional giveaway type shit. “Win $5000 Kid Rock tickets!”
The only way I see this working is if there using the sticker price for another purpose. Those are like Olympic Finals ticket prices, not hillbilly rock in the middle of nowhere prices.

Ticketmaster is a vile company. More than likely this is manufactured scarcity to drive ticket sales for a washed up has-been that no one cares about.
You’d have to actually attend a concert to see if those seats actually fill. I’m not willing to subject myself to that punishment.
