Just checked back it was £59.50 and £67 with fees. It was Castlefield Bowl at Manchester. Great price really for two great bands, was a great night.

Point still stands though, can see established acts for much less than she charges for ball, potato and plastic cup!

Ahh fairs! Yeah it was an absolute bargain, one of my top gigs this year. Insane that you can watch two absolute legend bands put on 1hr+ sets, yet these weirdos paid more to catch a glimpse of a tiktoker and scream over videos 🤣

I saw comments on a tik tok of parents saying they went with their daughters and it was all fine because they could be doing much worse as teens….. 🤯

People defending the price as we pay more concerts. I paid £140 for take that £75 is for the manics and suede in summer never mind this. Crazy.

I must be missing something but I’m really confused how two brothers/friends have set up what sounds to be like a very overprice mediocre jacket potato business and for some reason have management for social media - which makes me think they must be popular

Are they funny? Do they do something impressive?

The potato business they took over was very popular and well known locally (goes back to around the 1950s, it’s a long standing thing), it’s the town (city) over from me that my sister lives in that it’s based in so they had a great base already. From there they’ve just copied the other creators who already had spud vans and somehow managed to elevate it - I think because they’re much younger than the typical spud van guys and are attractive to teen girls.

It seems like there is some drama going on behind the scenes though because the “sister” tram they have was at the Preston football match on Weds and the comments on that were very much “we are not the spud bros tram and people shouldn’t mix us up”. Perhaps that’s a management set up to get attention too though, who knows.

My daughter's Uni accommodation is just round the corner from the Spud Bros place. The queue is always massive, I've never tried one as I can't be arsed with queuing for that long just for a baked potato.
 
So I’m a few pages behind but it sounds like the event was poorly organised and a bit of a mess. And also super cringey. It was clearly s grift and I can’t believe people paid That being said, I’ve noticed a lot of younger people (under 21s, mostly) have similar complaints and write these big posts about any live event. They all talk about how the event was crowded and someone was rude to them and it gave them a panic attack. I feel like Covid stunted a lot of these kids live events etiquette but also made kids overreact to annoying people being annouinf at live events
