Snoop Dogg’s AFL Grand Final spectacle vs NRL’s country showdown
Overpriced tickets to epic stadium shows, Aria-Spotify Backlash and BlueGrass breakthroughs-Live Music Is Wild this week. Music guru David Kowalski last.
Livemation CEO says concert tickets are worthless
The latest US concert supporter of CEO-Has-Concept-of-Free Files CEO Live nationMichael Rapino, concert tickets worthless And they are in demand (it justifies a potentially higher price tag). The average ticket price of the first 100 concert draw is $ 72 (AU $ 109) and “Try to enter the Lakers for this price”.
Mr. Rapino, I did this exactly and before the October 3 season game Lakers vs Phoenix SunsThe starting ticket price starts from US $ 67 (AU 101) and rises to $ 400 (AU $ 606) depending on the seat position. Watch out for the first game of the normal season on October 21, tickets start us$ 238 (AU 360 $) and move from there to the sky.
Rapino did something correctly, which has recently passed the roof. The venue rental is crazy and the audience is waiting for a visual -fantastic magnificent these days. This means that the average price is not close to $ 100. They can’t be because the logistics of presenting such a show is tremendous. Ridiculous concept dynamic pricingThis pushes the prices to the stratosphere and concerts continue to be inappropriate depending on the demand.
I don’t know exactly what the solution is to make live music accessible for everyone, not just with deep pockets. Nevertheless, it is not a rich CEO that tells us how good we are.

The epic war between the news this week Geelong cats And Brisbane Lions inside AFL GREAT FINAL For 2025. It was an epic war that saw the lions victorious. Before the start of the game, 100,000 fans were greeted with a sound that never shook the sacred grass of MCG before a football match – West Coast Gansta rapOr in this case, G-funk.
Beats was provided by legendary but controversial rapper Snoop dogg. Even before the performance took place, it was news for some badly thoughtful comments About LGBTIQ+ Community and Announcement of Performance In the Grand Final, he raised some eyebrows.
Performance, Pompom Girls, walking bands and synchronized dances with fireworks and flame balls and Pep Rally and College football echoes with a 15 -minute performance before releasing the performance of the performance launched on the video screen. As there would be a show for TV, performance was not a professional -looking hair. Also, he had some local abilities, Jessica Mauboy vocal Lettermen jacketYolgnu even rap Baker Boy It brings some Didgeerdoo and Tash Sultan on the guitar.
Of course, performance had detectors, but it was largely reported to have been reported to a great extent that performance fell as one of the best pre -game performances in AFL history. I couldn’t help but I feel a little anachronist besides performance Mike Brady trotter “There is jazally” Again…
Contrary with this National Rugby League Long weekend (Sunday, October 5). NRL boss Peter V’landys, AFL have to have “What is it called, Labrador or Poodle? All I know is a dog action“. Meanwhile, the NRL Grand Final, the action he reserves for the singer of the face tattooed country TEDDY swim“Bloche [that] He can really sing ”.
V’landys hopes Teddy Swims will help the NRL in the United States to promote NRL, like how the Snoop Dogg look dragged the AFL Grand final to the highest number of monitoring. However, considering that Instagram is told by doctors to cancel the concerts in Hawaii due to voice problems recently, there are some assumptions that swim may never appear. There is nrl He rejected this speculationHowever and swimming tag Warner music He confirmed NRL’s statement. It should be interesting how this explodes, but I think this would be more in the wheel house of most Footy fans of Snoop Dogg.

New Music – High Street Drifters
This week is a little different for new music, Melbourne’s new couple A-Parafi Single High Street Drifters. With a mixture of traditional BlueGrass with a modern edge, they are currently making waves in the country’s music circles.
Words to leave ”was a painful song through loss of love and parenting at a very early date.
