I think the problem for the artist is that the demand for tickets far exceeds supply. Imagine if the only way to see Bad Bunny is to pay $5000/ticket. I’m fairly confident large artists could sell out at these prices. The problem is you exclude/alienate your fan base so it’s net negative for the artist’s reach. Ticket prices are kept artificially low to be accessible to broader audiences.
