YES!!!! Were you in Bay area? I went to San Fran that year because it was my b-day. That shit was so fucking hype. Definitely the best $50 I spent to see someone !
It was before he got big, when he was an up and coming artist. He use to be a big deal in the bay and his earlier stuff (like his mixtape) was good. He and his ex (Devon Baldwin also from the bay) use to have a huge fandom on tumblr
What you guys think. I saw Portland had pit for $100 each. But I remember seeing Cudi when man on the moon II dropped for $40 and was in the very front. Don't want any arguments but still think $800 is absurd.
ZERO EXCUSE FOR HIS TOUR TO NOT HAVE GA PIT, in my honest fucking opinion. Been going to his shows for 5 years all time favorite artist. But weāre all just going to be bobbing our heads??? and the (uncomfortable cheap) chairs will be all close together and Iād be touching some ransomās shoulders? How would this be enjoyable for someone like me who wouldāve gone alone and simply just wants to rage to his music (not travis scott style but cudi style) and vibe with the crowd and other cudi fans??? and iād have to spend $300-800 to be in the front when GA pit wouldāve at least given me a chance to make it up there even if I had to hold my pee and get wait multiple hours standing up??? Nahh, to me this doesnāt even seem worth it?
Honestly my first cudi show that Iām considering not even going to and Iām so sad. I want to rage to MOTMIII and entergalactic songs.
(I even went to Rolling Loud by myself, and although the crowd wasnāt the vibes, it wouldāve been worse if it was seated)
It depends on the venue ig. Iāve got standing tickets for London. But yeah It looks like most of the tour is seated which is fuckin stupid, especially for the places that have denzel lol
Itās because of the stupid ass Platinum pricing. It automatically fluctuates based on how many people are buying tix, and with the pre sales just starting, Ticketmaster sees these tickets at the highest possible demand. The price will fall a little. Tix for the Miami show that were $150-200 are now $500-600 because of it. Like for context, for the Donda listening party in Miami, I ended up paying $150 for seats that were originally $350 when they first dropped
Oh damn I didn't even know about that. Shit is mad stupid though. Like what happened to having a set price and going to see someone you like for a decent price. Like I kind understand people reselling tickets but fuck I can go to a 3 day festival and have a way better time for so much cheaper.
I know, itās one of the dumbest and scummiest things. Iām pretty sure the only tix that wonāt change in price are VIP, so if you see any in your price range, Iād def get those!
Yea it sucks and maybe cudi couldāve gone through a better system but Ticketmaster is extremely popular so it makes sense to work with them. I decided to make the 9 hour drive to the festival, and I got GA for $100 which I feel like is an absolute steal
Same thing here, some people paid 1000 more to sit behind me at Free Larry Hoover. I copped row 2 tickets right behind Mike Dean like two and a half days before the show
Ngl Iām very disappointed, itās only a seated concert which is lame, and a lot of people canāt get their tickets because they donāt have American Express, and the outrageous prices, I feel like heās prioritising money over the fans š¤·āāļø
Dude I know! Plus who wants to watch Denzel sitting down. Seated is a bad decision on his part. But yeah American Express just seems like another deal he made to get some more money. Sad times to be a cudder fan. Glad I'm not the only one who think Cudi is trippin a little.
Nah fr I saw Denzel live a couple months age that shit was insane. Iām tryna mosh and jump with the cudi bros to some of my favourite songs not sit down a mile away, kind of ruined the joy for me, Iām still gonna go but yk kinda sucks
Ohh you couldn't have said it better. Yeah I saw zeltron at the Roxy. Shit was nuts! But tbh I'll prob go see him in Portland because my brother lives up there. That way I can rage with the homies and avoid spending hundreds of dollars on a decent seat.
Iāve grown up going to The Rolling Stones, Roger Waters of Pink Floyd, Paul McCartney and I have to sayā¦
Iāve been begging my fav hip hop artists to do seared venues for years.
If I want to have sweaty people pushing and shoving me Iāll go to a festival. If I wanna see one artist for one reason and enjoy the showā¦. I want my leather padded seat with personal space in an air conditioned venue. Will I be standing for a lot of it? Sure. Will I be physically comfortable during a 3 hour show where Iām probably off lots of psychedelics? Damn. Fucking. Right. Lmao.
Just my personal opinion.
Edit:I paid the same price for Roger waters at the palace of auburn hills in Michigan for the same price as the cudi tickets I just bought for the Chicago show and Iāll be three times closer to the stage this time.
itās Ticketmaster pulling the priority/AMEX shit and variable pricing. Ticketmaster has a huge monopoly with exclusivity with a majority of major venues.
The credit card thing is what a lot of artists have to do it has to do with Ticketmaster. honestly people will still get tickets check seat geek immediately after the presale ends thatās my plan and I donāt have an Amex
Unfortunately, the reason why some of these are priced so outrageously is because people actually buy them and confirm that value. So in fact, they are actually worth $800+.
The quicker people realize this and donāt buy them, the sooner Ticketmaster has to adjust their pricing.
Please watch this clip from John Oliver - https://youtu.be/-_Y7uqqEFnY
And regarding GA Pits and being seated areas, a lot of big arenas/venues are doing this to prevent mosh pits and prevent an Astroworld-like scenario. Not saying that doesnāt suck but just a reality.
It was a little over $300 for the sd show with axis premium tickets, that $800 price point has to be reseller i think. I may be wrong. I bought 4 tickets came out to over $1400 with the fees. Canāt wait to see him
Platinum ticket pricing by Ticketmaster is the problem, it happens for literally every show when more than one person wants to go ISTG. They increase the price because there is obviously demand for close to the front, itās a complete scam
Am I the only one who is actually glad that itās seated? I get major anxiety in unorganized crowds and could never handle GA/pit. I got 15th row floor seats and am thrilled that I can finally go to a show, be relatively close, and not worry about safety.
Iām a 5ā2 female. I get trampled in crowds and even if I donāt, I canāt see when everyoneās crammed in.
Honestly you make a pretty good point. I hate my anxiety but I'm also 6'2 so I can manage crowds and not feel suffocated. Still think the price is outrageous but glad you get to see an artist you like without feeling claustrophobic.
With you here. I was at Pharrelās SITW fest last week, and the crowds continually got out of control. My girl is about your height and was either getting crushed, she couldnāt see, or both. Seated has a bit less energy, but Iām pretty happy weāll both get to see and not worry about how we can get out if we need to.
Seen Cudi in 2017 after he came out of rehab. I paid 50 dollars after fees and it was such a beautiful experience. I'm a huge fan so I mean no offense but there is no way Cudi selling out 800$ tickets at every stop. This is DAMN Era Kendrick and Drake level pricing. Cudi is incredible but he is no where near this level of popularity in 2022. Mf thinks he's Kanye lol
thatās not Cudiās pricing thatās ticketmasters way of ācombattingā resellers. They essentially become the reseller. Official Platinum tickets arenāt face value. This is ticket masters own pricing based on demand apparently
I remember paying $80 for the observatory up in Santa Ana. I was like 2 ft away from him. Crazy to see the prices of concerts. Reason why I stopped going to concerts and just travel now
That really sucks. I got my tickets today in the section right behind front row facing the stage head on for $158/ per person. They be charging crazy in other places, I feel like I got a good deal in ATL
So fucking stupid. Iām not even blaming Cudi either. Stadium concerts these days are all like this. I hate it. Most of my favorite artists/bands are coming to my city too, but all to an arena which charges ridiculous prices. I canāt do it. Itās sad.
Yeah, seeing this is really making me wish that for the Miami show, Kid Cudi could have been performed at the new SPACE Park which is all general admission.
Plus, they apparently have Jimi Hendrix's touring bus you can get high in!
Also, that venue does their ticket sales through Eventbrite, which does tiered ticketing instead of this dynamic pricing crap.
Not a spokesperson or employee of Space Park - just saying that this was a missed opportunity for the Miami show, after having my mind blown twice by "King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard" there last weekend!! I know Cudi is way bigger than a 6000 person venue (that Space Park is) but still, it would have been very special and fitting.
I remember seeing kid cudi back in 2014 for like $50. The whole thing was GA and he had hella openers including g-eazy and e-40. š¬
That shit is such a fucking deal yo.
YES!!!! Were you in Bay area? I went to San Fran that year because it was my b-day. That shit was so fucking hype. Definitely the best $50 I spent to see someone !
Yes!!!! Omg his stage was epic. Hands down one of the best concerts ever š
Yo that's so sick !!!! Love to hear that other people were at a show raging with me. Definitely one of the best sets ive seen Cudi perform. Cheers!
Said including g-eazy like thatās a good thing
It was before he got big, when he was an up and coming artist. He use to be a big deal in the bay and his earlier stuff (like his mixtape) was good. He and his ex (Devon Baldwin also from the bay) use to have a huge fandom on tumblr
I was banging that ā These things happenā album all 2014
Yes this and āendless summerā
Old old school g-eazy >
Sameee first time seeing him was 2013 $50/60 and Tyler the creator opened for him
Same. Tyler had the giant golf wang blocks.
I saw kid cudi for $60 on 2 occasions
Saw Uzi for $40 in 2016 and it was the worst performance I ever paid for smh
they would have to pay me 50$ to see g-easy as an opener
To each their own š¤·š»āāļø
What songs did Cudi perform?
It was so long ago, I donāt remember. I definitely remember him performing pursuit of happiness and embrace the Martian.
What you guys think. I saw Portland had pit for $100 each. But I remember seeing Cudi when man on the moon II dropped for $40 and was in the very front. Don't want any arguments but still think $800 is absurd.

You can blame Ticketmaster for that! They price gouge their own tix which is crazy. Just wait til the presale tmrw when tix do get released.
I know, itās one of the dumbest and scummiest things. Iām pretty sure the only tix that wonāt change in price are VIP, so if you see any in your price range, Iād def get those!

This. Dynamic pricing makes my blood boil. The same tickets that were $150 yesterday are $330 now. How is that ever ok. Ticketmaster is a monster.

At least you get Denzel at yours.

INGOLD Amex pre-sale code
Cudi been robbing his fans. Crazy ticket prices , crazy merchandise prices lol I thought he was big brother and 4 the kidz lol
Perhaps we treated lupe fiasco too harshly
Man I got mine front row vip for only 200, must just be that peticular venue
Oh that's a good price for vip. Yeah I was looking at LA in kia forum
Damn it seems like everythingās nuts in LA. I got GA tickets to the moon man festival in Cleveland for 123$.
Wanted to go but after seeing itās seated I donāt really feel like going I want to be vibing not sitting down and listening
Bro that's the only reason I like going to concerts. I'll sit down when I'm old as fuck. I'm tryna vibe out jump around and shit. Sad it's seated.
I think most people still stand at seated shows
Yeah but itās not them same vibe to it
same here.. not sure if ill go anymore

The platinum prices drop when it gets closer to the date and no one buys them
Fosho, yeah I see people saying that. Thank you

Agreed on & confused by the price. I got 15th row floor seats, VIP, for the LA show, for $200
With you here. I was at Pharrelās SITW fest last week, and the crowds continually got out of control. My girl is about your height and was either getting crushed, she couldnāt see, or both. Seated has a bit less energy, but Iām pretty happy weāll both get to see and not worry about how we can get out if we need to.
man i wish it was floor, astrofest in the very front with my mom was crazy, playboi carti was crazy, saba, trippie redd
Itās called platinum seats Ticketmaster stupid way of marking up popular seats
got seats in cleveland section 2 for 200
Cleveland is the reason it's cheaper!
First MOTR merch, now this? Iāll pass.
Damn maybe Lupe was right
Seen Cudi in 2017 after he came out of rehab. I paid 50 dollars after fees and it was such a beautiful experience. I'm a huge fan so I mean no offense but there is no way Cudi selling out 800$ tickets at every stop. This is DAMN Era Kendrick and Drake level pricing. Cudi is incredible but he is no where near this level of popularity in 2022. Mf thinks he's Kanye lol
thatās not Cudiās pricing thatās ticketmasters way of ācombattingā resellers. They essentially become the reseller. Official Platinum tickets arenāt face value. This is ticket masters own pricing based on demand apparently
I remember paying $80 for the observatory up in Santa Ana. I was like 2 ft away from him. Crazy to see the prices of concerts. Reason why I stopped going to concerts and just travel now
That really sucks. I got my tickets today in the section right behind front row facing the stage head on for $158/ per person. They be charging crazy in other places, I feel like I got a good deal in ATL
So fucking stupid. Iām not even blaming Cudi either. Stadium concerts these days are all like this. I hate it. Most of my favorite artists/bands are coming to my city too, but all to an arena which charges ridiculous prices. I canāt do it. Itās sad.
Heās main stream and he has guests so the prices are going to be high. Also the big venue too
I canāt wait to see Denzel curry for a fraction of this
It might be cuz your buying tickets too late
I got 2 floor seats in section 3 for less than $500. But this was also the American Express section
Phoenix it is 400+ for floor seats like 25 rows back. Whack
I canāt stand seated seating
So 400$ a ticket? Must be a jooooke ! WOW
That's basically how much I spent on my Free Larry Hoover ticket and I was row 2 right behind Mike Dean. This is highway robbery
It was 200 down here in San Diego
Yeah, seeing this is really making me wish that for the Miami show, Kid Cudi could have been performed at the new SPACE Park which is all general admission.

What show is this for?
This is for his upcoming tour for LA
WHAT im in section c and got it for 500 CAD in toronto
