The Bleachers frontman, who often collaborates with Taylor, tweeted his ideas on Nov. 18. "While we're talking, venues should cease taxing artists' merch," he wrote. When touring, this is the only way to make money.

He said that more amazing music would be produced if young and tiny musicians can make a living on the road. "Touring is an honest method to gain money. Hard, sincere work. Why are artists so difficult?"

Stop taxing merch, stop lying to artists about show costs, and incorporate artists in other revenue streams. "My tour stories are wild. Young touring artists get paid last."

Jack's statement comes after Swifties criticized Ticketmaster's concert-selling methods during the Verified Fan and Capital One presales, which led to the cancellation of the general sale.

Later, Jack approved a fan's notion of "simply a terrific concept" to "What if we stopped using venues?" Bleachers play an abandoned k- martin 2023."

There are a lot of reasons why individuals had a hard time getting tickets," she said on Instagram Stories. "I won't make excuses for anyone because they informed us they could handle the demand.

It's fantastic that 2.4 million people got tickets, but it upsets me that many felt like bears attacked them."
