The demographics we target are struggling to justify the hundreds, if not thousands of dollars we charge for tickets and we can’t figure out why

    There is also the competition with vegas festivals that seem to be getting more and more popular, and have every single band/artist you want to see (when we were young, lovers and friends). There is plenty of cheap hotel options and inventory, and people like going to vegas anyway. Also, easy to get to on budget airlines

      A friend of mines band played one of those Vegas fests (not the ones you mentioned). All the bands hated it.

          Nothing damning. Just hot as shit, Vegas having a weird cursed energy, Felt bland. Maybe a stretch to say everyone hated it, but it was not fun at least from what my friend told me.

            I've been to Vegas for a few conventions; the cigarette stench is everywhere and I got laryngitis just being there, so I can understand that.

            Also, contemporary Vegas' casinos are just glorified rest homes; a bunch of boomer-themed "slot machines" that are just giant iPads and such, silent as a morgue.
