Speaker 1 (00:00):
What is the most expensive concert ticket per minute?
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Which artist charges the most? I love this, I love this.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
This is a face value, so yeah, yeah, not based
on like going and buy, because then that's unfair, right,
but just based on on face value of what tickets cost.
And they went in and they said, if you pay
X for the ticket based on how long the artist
plays for in a concert, how much is it costing
(00:32):
you per minute?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
It's pretty good. It's pretty fascinating.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
So the initial thought is, well, it's got to be
Taylor the Tailor's show is so long, three hours.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
And that's they do point that out, like, for example,
why don't want to tell you what her average is?
I have her average, her average, not I have her
average per minute. Her average concert ticket is two hundred
and thirty nine dollars. Now, I know nobody's getting tickets
for two hundred and thirty nine dollars, But if you
were fortunate and you were able to get them when
they went on sale and you paid face value for
(01:08):
the ticket, they're two hundred and.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Thirty nine dollars. Now, she does play a very long show,
which means she's not going to be number one.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Of course, she plays, she plays almost three and a
half hours. Yeah, three hours and twenty minutes. Well it's
a little more than that, but on average three to twenty.
So yeah, she doesn't fall into number one. And again,
this is face value. It's not having to pay stub
Hub or scalpers or whatever that is, and Sea Geek
(01:43):
and the rest of them. It is just, oh my god,
they went on sale and I got it for face value.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
And then she gives you a long show.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
She, by the way, over the last year they were
looking at she averages the longest show of any artist
out there.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Not by much.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I can tell you who's right behind him, right behind
terms of concert length length, yes, length. Will you tell
me Springsteen?
Speaker 4 (02:09):
No?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Oh no, As a.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Matter of fact, Springsteen, So I told you Taylor Swift
is at three twenty one.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Springsteen's not even at three hours. He's backed off that much.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Now two hours, fifty six minutes, Okay, he's okay.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Well he's not at three. I'm getting a half hour
more out of Taylor.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
And Bruce is like, you know what, let me, the
less I play, the more I can put up my
a what I'm getting paid a minute.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
He's also seventy four and coming off having to cancel
a whole leg or two legs of a tour.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
How's number two? So is this late?
Speaker 5 (02:43):
Is this?
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Are we guessing? Length? Now? Are we guessing?
Speaker 6 (02:46):
What?
Speaker 2 (02:46):
You? You tell me? Together? You tell me.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
I want to guess who has the most expensive concert
by per minute per minute?
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Good luck, Well the Stones have to be up there.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
No most expensive concert ticket per minute. Oh they're up there,
but they're not number one, but they're on the list.
Yeah they're number four.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Oh that's pretty good. Yeah, that's not bad. Okay.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
I'll talk about all the time that they get surprised,
even when it's just face and not secondary. When the
Stones tickets go on sale, they're like, oh my god,
these are expensive and they play what two hours a night?
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Let me see if I have their time. I don't
know why I said it like that. They're time. They don't.
I only have the top ten average longest shows out
and they are not in it. They are not in it, Diane.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Back to you, I'll say, Beyonce.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Most expensive, Diane, very good, number eighth, number eight. Now
the Stones are getting a dollar seventy eight a minute.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Oh I don't like thinking of a concert that way.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Now, Beyonce is only getting a dollar thirty nine a
minute personally, Yeah, per person Yes, And by the way, Beyonce,
Beyonce is in the top ten for length of show,
so she is giving you a little more bangy bangy
for your Bucky Bucky.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
She's at two point thirty. God, she's twenty five minutes
less than Bruce Tyler.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Back to you, How long were you Two's Sphere shows?
Speaker 1 (04:17):
They are second on the list and they make two
dollars and twelve cents a minute.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Pretty good, it's number two.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
There are only two bands that are averaging over two
dollars a minute.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Are any of those Sphere shows long.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
That?
Speaker 2 (04:35):
I don't know they average?
Speaker 1 (04:37):
I'll tell you what if they're playing more than two songs,
they were playing too long.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
They averaged two ten for the Sphere You two did.
But like, what's the Dead?
Speaker 4 (04:44):
What about Dead and Company?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Sitting through that garbage? Dead and Company?
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Dead and Company was right behind Taylor Swift in terms
of average length of show. Average length of show for
Dead and Company is three hours and fourteen minutes.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Yeah, and they're doing that at the Sphere.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
It's spinning the whole time.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
By the way, not in the top ten for most
expensive per minute. They're giving you bang for your buck,
bangy bangy for Bucky Bucky. I would sit through a
thousand nights in a row of Dead and Company before
I would sit through one night of you too.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
Let's slippy floppy that for a minute.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
I don't know, By the way, by Dead and Company show,
there's a lot of flippy floppy titties.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
I know, yes, I don't know who to blame, but
I don't know why I've I've suddenly been fed so
much dead content and all it is on friggin TikTok,
and all it is is people spinning and ugly clothes.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
But a thousand shows, Dane, that's less than three years
every single night.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
All right, who's up? Who's up?
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Oh? Diane'sa most expensive concert ticket per minute?
Speaker 4 (05:54):
Where's Morgan Wallen?
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Great Gas?
Speaker 1 (05:59):
By the way, I will tell you this, the number
one selling tour of the year so far has been
Morgan Wallan.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Now did they factor in that he gave you forty
extra minutes this past weekend?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
The well, you know what, I didn't even pay for that?
The no, Morgan walland he is tenth. Morgan's only pulling
in a dollar thirty nine a ticket. He's tied with
Beyonce Morgan wallin giving you Bangy Bangy for Bucky Bucky
because he's not on the longest show. By the way,
(06:34):
the other person who's eight nine and ten or tied,
I'll give you nine. Okay, so at a dollar thirty
nine a minute. Beyonce Morgan walland Kendrick Lamar All right,

play an hour thirty? Are you serious? Oh my god?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Now their songs are so short they play twenty five
plus songs.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Wait, so that show's only an hour and a half. Well,

doing a lot of editorialized yes.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
God, I hate them. By the way, the Eagles don't
even play two and a half hours. Good do they
play longer than Blink? I don't think anybody plays longer
than Blink.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Number five, number five. Nobody's gonna guess number five.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
Number five as an an international artist.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
I mean they're internationally known, but no, they're not from overseas,
from America.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
And why can't we get you can, but you won't.
This is fun.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
I don't even have a good hint for you.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
What genre country? Kenny Chesney, No think about it. Who
would get a dollar seventy seven a minute?
Speaker 4 (09:12):
That's a good hint.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
And I can tell you this. They play less than
two and a half hours. Come on, are they old? Yes?
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Oh? Is it?
Speaker 5 (09:23):
Is it an ensemble a band? Or is it like
a single country artist?
Speaker 1 (09:28):
I'm gonna get I'm gonna double down for you. There
it is a male artist.
Speaker 6 (09:35):
Oh?

Yes. Is it George Straight? Yes?
Speaker 1 (09:42):

and I know he's playing less than two and a
half hours.
Speaker 4 (09:48):

He laughs, he laughs at Travis Barker.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Two forty three, Dave Matthews and uh, Hans Zimmer, Well
that'll get you baked. You know what I learned over
the weekend, Hans Zimmer doesn't have a guitar deal.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
What demon. How does he not have an instrument deal?
How did you learn that I know somebody who knows
somebody who knows.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Him, and that that's the element of his life that
you guys discussed.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
I mean, I don't know a lot about Hans Zimmer.
I know he's a composer.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
Line one. I could do that. Hi Ellie in the morning. Hey, Hey,
who's this? Oh it's Randy. What's going on? Randy is
j lo?
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Duh?
Speaker 2 (10:59):
No jumping it? Oh Madonna? You know what. That's a
good guess, Randy, that is a good guess.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
But not on there, not on there, not for longest show,
not for most expensive ticket. By the way, we only
have three and one left. One's international, is one is domestic.
Speaker 6 (11:20):
Well, I know he's not on there, but I just
looked up tickets to see Usher and his were like
nine something the base value.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Yep, wait a minute, tickets to see Usher are not
nine thousand dollars, say.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Nine hundred?
Speaker 6 (11:40):
No way, Yeah, I just looked two weeks ago. I said, well,
I won't be seeing him.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
And you're talking just regular on sale.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
You're not talking about like the IP experience resales.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
No, just are you clicking the right filters.
Speaker 6 (11:57):
Yeah, I just want to see Janet Jackson's last month.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
So how much did that?
Speaker 5 (12:02):
Call it.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
Nice and cheat? One hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
I'm shocked it was that cheap.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
You could see Janet Jackson nine times versus Usher once.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Yep, there's no why. I refuse to believe that.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
I refuse to believe Usher is going to cost me
nine hundred dollars a seat regular.
Speaker 6 (12:26):
I was shocked as well.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Tell me every seat is still available. These shows at
the State Farm coming up are not sold.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Out, no way.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Nine hundred dollars you can get you can get in
for less.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Yeah, no, Usher better, Usher better come out there.
Speaker 6 (12:42):
It was it was a floor seat.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
All right, but still nine hundred bucks. That's a lot.
All right, very good, Thank you, Randy, Thank you.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Yes, he's coming through d C and Baltimore at the
end of this month.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
There are better be seats available nine hundred dollars. You
know what, get it if you can a lot of
blue there?
Speaker 3 (13:04):
Yeah, I mean, I mean the show's it's a lot
of resale that you're seeing, right. The shows are selling well,
nine two nights the Capital one.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Well, wouldn't you at eighteen hundred dollars a ticket?
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Should I do four?
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Come on? Number three?
Speaker 1 (13:20):
Who's getting a buck eighty one a ticket?
Speaker 2 (13:24):
International? I don't know who's getting a buck eighty one
a minute?
Speaker 1 (13:28):
International? Genre, mainstream urban. I'm blanking Drake, oh Drake.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Oh yeah, so his shows are short?
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, like even Travis Parker
goes bro.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Why are you working so hard? Get on, get off?
Be done? This setlist for two hours? Are they really? Yeah?
BTS gives you thirty extra minutes. Who's number one on
the list?
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Yeah, by the way, I got everybody Adele No, oh.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
That residency right now? Munich, Holy crap. You see that
led screen? No, I saw her stop her show? Yeah
to Sugar Races.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Yeah, it's not Harry Styles. I'll tell you what I'm
Is that true. I don't think I've ever seen him. Oh,
it's a guy. I'd love to see him. I would
love to see him.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
So you don't have a problem with this larrtist and
you're not gonna w well I triple bill nightmare.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
No, no, no, no, I'd love to see him.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
But now I have to question, is he worth two
dollars in nineteen cents a minute?
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Whoa, Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
To nineteen a minute. He's awesome. Though you saw him
on the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
And you loved him the weekend.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
No, no, no, no, you're gonna pay the weekend to
nineteen a minute.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
I didn't say I was to nineteen a minute as
a tour or a residency. Definitely, no both.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
He did a residency, did a tour and then turned
it into a residency, and then bought a bar in
the hotel.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
Brandy already said Usher.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Usher doesn't own a bar in a hotel. Bruno. Oh, Peter,
Peter Hernandez.
Speaker 4 (15:30):
It's Peter.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
How about that?
Speaker 1 (15:32):
The highest teen highest, highest cost per minuted is Peter
Hernandez to nineteen How long are his shows?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
I'm looking at up. I'd love to go see Bruno Mars.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
Let's see they at the Dolby Live Residency. Oh, I
don't see a duration on here.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
It feels like it lasts a lifetime.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
But his but his tour shows right are an hour forty.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Oh boy, that's not much.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
No, yeah, their residency is also right around their hour forty.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
And by the way, average ticket to see Bruno Mars
is two hundred and eighteen dollars Yeah, he makes two
nineteen a minute.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
That ain't bad. That ain't bad at all. That's a
fun list. Yeah. No, I like that. I like that now.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
I do know of tours last year who made the
least per minute and for good reason. And boy would
fill out a triple bill as a matter of fact,
with the Eagles and U two on that bill. This
band would definitely be the opener and I would refuse
to walk into the building.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
And these are the of the ones.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
There's obviously an infinite number of bands.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
They're not counting Ted Crotch Scratch at the State Theater.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
It's my favorite.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
They're not counting him.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
No, these are established band Okay, yes, established bands who
were on tours.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
So this is going to be the They're a known band.
Everybody will know the band.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
But this band gives you the greatest bang for your buck.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
Yes, if you could stomach it, and I couldn't filter.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
No, no, I don't even think they were on a
real tour. They're out there with peak crotch Scratchers.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
I mean, we can just list Jewel and list bands
you hate.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Yeah, keep going, I mean you're on the right track.
I do hate this band.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Uh, Genesis no, they unfortunately would make money.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Idiots.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Oh they can't anymore because remember Phil Collins can't tour
because he can't sit. Sorry about your back, whatever, dude,
that's what happens when you're a prick.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Dan who else in the world of music.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
It's not as bad. It's not as bad as like
Phil Collins and Filter and Jewels. Yeah, Jewel, I would
spend money for it. Get that goddamn tooth fixed.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
That's mean. But she was mean to you first, Yes
she was. And that's how it works.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
When the cops shet, they were responded, right, come on,
come on, she can't say okay, sit Diana. Come on,
when did you start hating this band in the last
when they were a holes at in Ellie in the
Morning promotion. So in DC, yes, in Adams Morgan.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Oh got it, get it, he just gave it away.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
I know what it is.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Go ahead and cornn absolutely absolutely losers.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
By the way, enjoy your thirty eight cents a minute.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
That actually, yeah, you could look at it and go like, wow,
they're not really charging much. Yeah, you know why because
no one wants to pay. Look at usher nine hundred
dollars
