ARTPOPSYCHOLOGY

Saw this article and thought it was interesting as myself and a few users mentioned the possibility of Gaga doing a “virtual concert.” What do y’all think? Do you think she can do a pay-per-view style tour for Chromatica? Also, the article mentions virtual concerts already planned but not announced yet. Could Gaga have a surprise show lined up already!?
 

But big plans are afoot as multiple companies work feverishly to find ways not only to improve livestreamed concerts creatively, but also as a business that can support as much of the existing live-entertainment ecosystem as possible — and sources say the early results of those efforts are right around the corner. Everyone Variety spoke with for this article mentioned or alluded to projects in the works — ranging from literal pay-per-view tours (that are “geo-blocked,” or limited to a specific area) to a plan to stream concerts into venues — that they “can’t talk about just yet,” but are coming within months if not weeks.

Discuss!

Unless it's like $10, I would not participate in this.

The whole point of going to concerts is to be in the crowd and build off everyone’s energy. There is no way to replicate that

reality’s tight if the music is right

SM Ent., a kpop agency, is already doing these and it’s working for them. And honestly if Gaga ever did it I can see you all paying for it even if right now you’re against it :ladyhaha: oh and they’re doing it on an actual stage.

I don’t see the issue with paying... You’re still consuming content that took time and effort to prepare. Assuming that should be free is saying those artists’ work isn’t worth your money, but you’re still entitled to it. That’s not how it works.

A small fee is okay. If they start charging ticket level fees then they can forget it lol

imagine a netflix for live concerts but like it gets exclusive cntent and it has so many artists that u can rlly pick n choose from small to big and it becomes a democratic way of reaching the masses for smaller artists like in spotify but visually and performance wise wowza

Agreed, it should be adjusted considering that they don’t have to pay for venue fees etc.

10000% no. 

The whole point is seeing the person in person, the energy, etc. They’re really trying it.
