Last few years I've seen 2 or 3 shows a month. There's only been a couple of big venues, say more than 5,000 seats. Most in venues smaller than 600 or so. We can see people like Steve Earle, Joe Bonamassa, Robert Cray, Lucinda Williams, Patty Griffin, Jorma, Dave Alvin, Tedeshci Trucks Band for under $100 (sometimes way under) for good seats. I really have to laugh when I see the prices for bad seats to shows like Fleetwood Mac, Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney and Jackson Brown - people long past their primes who I'd love to see but there's NO WAY I'm spending that kind of money for bad seats and water cooler credibility.

Edit - I see maybe 7 or 8 shows a year - most of them are musicals.

Live music? never. I would not bother unless it was classical chamber music, and free. LOL - Nuit 09:46:47 03/01/15 (4)
