Live music today is not what it used to be. From Taylor Swift fans taking Ticketmaster to court, to the horrific Astroworld tragedy, and major artists like Justin Bieber canceling tours, there’s the sense that today’s concertgoing experience is being ruined. Fans and artists alike are speaking out about a troubling shift in concert culture, reflected in crowds filled with phone screens, intrusive onstage heckling, and a post-pandemic tendency to consume the artist as viral content.
