This is so sad. Art is the thing I believe makes us fundamentally human and pretty much the only reason I think we deserve to continue existing. If not art then what - the economy? I would rather we all cease to exist. I can't be the only person who feels this way. The commercialisation of it all is so sickening. It's not even about art but ticket sales and cross selling and up selling. Merch and clothing brands. Noone cares about the music. It's all a product.
