Good read! Layered topic!. Agree "Concerts are best night out".esp. as nightclubs closing!. "friend who opted for VIP" Often no other option!."VIP “a scam”". Spend review👇.Me: Gigs 50+ p.y./Tickets 2.5K+ avg/€50 p.g. Older than Gen Z!.More small gigs/venues/Upcoming acts is key
‘The best night out’: The Gen-Z ‘Ticketmaster warriors’ spending €1,500 a year on gigs via @IrishTimesCultr.
