Beyonce's High Concert Tickets in a Recession


Just saw a rumor mill post on mediatakeout.com about a supposed flop of Beyonce's Las Vegas concert series. B debuted new costumes and makeup :-) But it was not enough for one female who paid $1,000 for front row seats and complained about supposedly only "two wardrobe changes." While I don't believe in an alleged flop, some things can explain empty seats comped and filled by the Wynn/Encore to its "high limit" gamblers.

I am a Beyonce fan a bit disappointed about paying my $166.43. And the Las Vegas visitors and locals probably tried to play it safe and gambled to ensure somewhat of a return on their money. All logical during this very real recession.

I went to Beyonce's show at the IZOD in NJ July 24th. Everything was great considering I had a close-up with my binoculars. Admittedly, a considerable amount of seats were empty. That amount of money would of gotten me non-binocular needing seats a few years ago though. Anyway, I was much over the price after I dished out the money a little over a month earlier.

In retrospect, I caught myself thinking is this worth it during the actual concert. I tried to pass that feeling off to the fact that my friend to the left wasn't dancing her heart out considering this was like her third or fourth time seeing our B.

The best I can explain it is when you see yourself a fine ass man and you get him in bed but... He doesn't perform? No Beyonce did thing. You fake the orgasm? No, I had my binoculars and I love all her music and this was my first time see her in person. You soup you self up way more than you should and that belittles the experience and then your explosion. lol Well, kinda.

I hate seating charts because I never get the right scope of a venue I've never visited before. So I had no idea that I'd only have a side view the entire time. When she did a bit of the second half of the show in the middle of the floor seating her back or side was still facing my section.

Diddy said it right on the premiere of "Making His Band." Recession concert ticket prices: $45!
