When I was 17, I dated a nurse. I felt inadequate because she was saving lives, and I was just a musician. When I told her how I felt, she was shocked. She said that she may be saving lives, but musicians make those lives worth living. Live music is central to our human experience, and gives far more back to people than it takes financially

Greed is killing live shows. Ticket prices are absurd. I'd rather pay $20 and see a lesser known band in a club (and usually meet the band and maybe even share a drink or a story) than $100+ for a ticket to sit in nosebleed and realize i forgot to bring binoculars.

Us old folks remember when you went to a concert, tickets were $30 - 35, and getting tickets a week before a show was no problem. Live Nation and Ticketmaster have ruined the whole experience, and do nothing for the consumer.

Watching live music in a stadium is like looking at the moon from your garden.

Who wants to pay $400 to sit up in a stadium? Plenty of people, I guess, but not me.

whether it's a quote of Churchill or not - It would be a good one: "When Winston Churchill was asked to cut arts funding in favour of the war effort, he simply replied, ‘then what are we fighting for?’" I (as a german) can't image a world without the music from the UK.

We have lost so many venues in Australia. A big problem has been the building of luxury flats next to venues. These rich people move in next to venues that have been homes to live music for 50+ years and then they complain about the noise. The Palace in Melbourne was originally a movie theatre, my grandmother used to go there when she was young. It became a live music venue at some point and hosted all kinds of amazing concerts. I saw Richard Ashcroft, BRMC and Ace Frehley there. Then the new neighbours complained until the owners gave in and sold the building to developers. There was a campaign to save it, but the new owners had already demolished the interior before enough money could be raised. I really hope that this doesn't happen to any more iconic live music venues as we've already lost too many.

Lets all remind ourselves, that if we take interest to seek local shows, they might happen more. The overflowing pop crowd is always going to fill stadiums, but those of us who want the close up experience have to put ourselves into it.

Sadly, it wouldn't be the first industry to sacrifice long term future for short term profits.

Without small venues and the indie artists nurtured by them, all of our music culture will consist of highly produced "acts" chosen for their looks, not their poetry.

I used to be a local live music photographer. I saw a worrying pattern at the majority of venues. When venues had multiple unsigned bands on each band would have their own crowds made up of family and friends.once the band performed they left and so did their crowd. Once you got to the last act there was hardly anyone left in the venue

I grew up musically between about 1969 and the 80's with so many great bands it was staggering. Pink Floyd, the Beatles, the Stones, the Who, Genesis, Yes, Moody Blues and the list is almost endless. No auto tune for a fraction of the cost now adays. Sadly that time ended long ago but I remember it like it was yesterday.

Here in the states, it seems like when schools trim budgets, the music, trades, and other arts get cut.
All the money goes to sports.

I believe that, at least in the US, the monopoly of Ticketmaster/Live Nation and ticket resellers (who used to be called scalpers - which used to be illegal) are the leeches who are killing the live music industry by hurting both the small venues, as well as up and coming artists and bands that can barely afford to tour, because their return is so low.

Here in L.A many clubs I grew up knowing, have come and gone on Hollywood blvd and the sunset strip. Now in their place are high priced vacant condos , offices and Netflix studios. I’m 45 now. I was raised a block away from Capital Records and the Pantages Theater from 79-93. I remember seeing Hair Metal dudes and Real Punks walking up and down Hollywood blvd from earliest memory at age 3. I remember seeing guys and gals unpacking their vans and tour bus. The smell of leather jackets coming out from the shops on the Blvd.
When you watch a classic hair metal band video that takes place in Hollywood or the film Airheads. That’s what the vibe felt like. A never ending Party.
I know there must be small clubs. But the magic of going out, getting to know other band and artists has dwindled for the current generation.
But I’m grateful that we can make our own music at home. Put out an album/single on The World Wide Web. Venue maybe closing but if you look back in NYC in the 70s and 80s. People got creative and got into empty buildings, theaters and warehouses. Also Schools have auditoriums. They may want to make a buck as well. Morrissey played at my old high school in 2013.

Love supporting my local music scene in Brisbane Australia. Ive discovered so many amazing bands who are playing for the love of it, they're not making money. And when you play for the love it really shows, more than words can describe. Its really important to help out your fave loval bands buy helping them and buying their merch because they're just scraping by.

Greed has always been the big enemy of all the arts but especially music. Now all the consolidation, unreasonable increases in production costs has ticket prices so high many fans simply can't afford to attend a show.

So true. Without small venues, music can not breathe. Thanks for speaking out!

The problem is much more than financial for these small venues. As Mary states in this video many communities are now complaining about noise whereas in the past this wasn’t an issue.
Here in Stockholm, Sweden there’s an awesome little club (Melody Box) that has been putting on fantastic concerts for decades and it’s located smack dab in the middle of a residential neighborhood. Yet only in the past 2 or 3 years have the “noise complaints” started. There’s simply a lot of people who take pleasure in destroying others happiness now.
