The answer is mentioned in the article. Not all concerts want only people with means to attend. The venue might want to be accessible to low-income members of the community, or it might be a benefit concert, with free tickets and a donation drive.
- akrymski 1y agoWhat's wrong with giving out some free tickets to low income members of the community?
- mixmastamyk 1y agoNothing in theory, but ticket sellers probably don’t want to get into the means-testing business.
- akrymski 1y agoYou can't hand out money (which you're doing if you're giving away something of market value for nothing) without taking on the responsibility of deciding who gets it. Even charities have to put in the work.
- mixmastamyk 1y agoYou can if you just DGAF, like TM. Reminded of this sketch: https://snltranscripts.jt.org/76/76aphonecompany.phtml https://snltranscripts.jt.org/76/76aphonecompany.phtml
