Japan has multiple ticket vendors (Lawson is dominant but not close to TM), dozens of venues of all sizes, concert tours lasting years (I have tickets for a show in November 2027), ID checks, ticket lotteries, presales for fan clubs, anti-scalping laws, you name it, but the prices can still be astronomical for local price levels. I think the problem is that there isn't five clones of every popular act.
