How to save money for a concert ticket..?
I could tell you how to be frugal like me. How to save the money you have: Stay away from cigarettes! use cantines instead of buying waterbottles or sodas, try to eat at buffets instead of restaraunts, shop for clothes & furniture at discount stores, use spiral bulbs instead of normal bulbs, watch movies on putlocker or youtube instead of buying or renting them, when you buy a car buy a small efficient one instead of a truck or SUV, & if you ever build your own house order white roofing instead of the usual dark. Another somewhat frugal habit is using progressive grammar like me (&>and, 2>two, 1st>first, %>percent) when you're writing papers. How to make a little money: Collect cans & other scrap metals & take it up to your local metal recycling place that pays you. If you have any books or DVDs you don't want anymore sell them to Half Priced Books (but you have to have a drivers license to get paid). If you have any unwanted gold sell it to Cash4gold. When you pass by vending machines look in the coin slots for coins. In my experience 1/10 of them have coins. If you're a kid & some of this doesn't apply to you, saving on electricity still saves your parents money. I believe that this world would be a much better place if everybody was frugal & I hope I am helping people by answering these questions. If my advice is what you were looking for then pick me best, if someone else answered your question but my advice has helped you just send me a message.
it totally depends on how famous or well known a singer is at the momentthe rates keep changing per singerthe top most draws about 2 crores excluding business class air fares and 7 star hotel stays and meals and conveyance and security while it also goes down to a lac per performance or even less considering the type of singer
How to raise money for a concert ticket?
I'm raising money for Green day concert tickets too! how funny! Here's what i'm doing. ~If you are fortunate(like me) to live near a pizza restaurant, go in and ask if they need someone to pass out coupons of flyers. Like going and putting them on cars and front doors. I get paid like 4 bucks an hour. You don't even need a car, you can walk or ride a bike ~Im also dog sitting/walking. It's really easy, and it doesn't take too much effort. i'm getting between 2-4 bucks an hour ~I know it's kinda cheesy, but babysitting is actually a really great way t earn money. If you would like to do what i do, you can. I started this ''weekend daycamp'' at my house. I went around and told my neighbors that for 2 days i could watch their children at my house. it was like a day camp, and each parent paid about 20 bucks. (I was 16 and everyone in the neighborhood knew i was responsible, so they let me.) ~I'm selling a lot of my old clothes. Just stuff i don't wear as much, and stuff that didn't fit. I was lucky in that I had a 60 dollar pair of jeans my grandparents gave me, and i got 50 bucks for them!! ~if i am lucky enough to go, I've told my friends that i'm going to take pictures while i'm their. I'm actually going to sell some of my pictures to them in exchange for concert money. (they've agreed to pay me now, and get the pictures later)
Well, what did you expect from concerts?Were you expecting it to be a comfortable space where your personal space is recognized?Were you expecting the performers to perform the songs the exact way it is on the records?Were you expecting it to be a meet and greet opportunity?The people around you are part of the concert experience. Concerts are a communal experience. You share their enthusiasm, and the enthusiasm of the crowd feeds the energy of the artist and performers and that energy is fed back again to the crowd and so on, leading to euphoria or in plain words, fun.You go to concerts to see them perform and marvel at their skill (or lack thereof) and the execution of said skill in real time and in the flesh, including variations not found on the record, as well as the imperfections not present in ultra-polished computer-corrected records.You can actually sorta have coffee with the artist if you buy a VVIP ticket and there’s a meet and greet event before or after the show. But you don’t go to concerts for that. You go because of point 2. But just so you know, such tickets exist.Well, it just seems like concerts aren’t for you really. You seem to not be able appreciate or recognize the difference between a record and a live musical performance and that’s fine. You also seem to put more emphasis on celebrity and self, in which case, listening to records would satisfy either expectation.
My friends are going to a concert and im jealous? how do i get over this jealousy?
I know the feeling! My best friend and her friend from New York went to see One Direction last night and I am super jelous (and still am) that I didn't get to go since I am a huge fan of 1D. They got to sit close to the stage and I am not suprised that her friends parents paid for the tickets since they have a lot of money and my friend has a job but didn't have a lot of money for her ticket since she had to pay her cell phone bill. I have to pick her up from work on Friday and I'm sure she is going to wear the shirt that she bought at the concert so she can show it off in front of me and make me even more jealous. I guess jealousy is a part of life and I will get over it eventually. When there's another concert you want to go to, start saving up you money now so you can get a ticket next time :) that's what I'm doing for the next 1D concert
When I was organizing my first concert back in 2007, I made the mistake of being too wide-eyed and wanting to go for larger name bands to bring in a bigger audience. I had no money to pay the bands and to make things even more challenging, I was organizing a benefit concert to raise money for the Teen Center that I had been going to for a couple of years. A lot of first time organizers think that if you have a pitch like a benefit concert or a cause of some sort that this will entice musicians and bands because they might share the same passion as you. The truth is, musicians and bands need to get paid too and they're not getting paid much so they'd really rather just take a gig where they will be getting paid as opposed to not. Since I don't know your purpose for organizing a concert, what budget you're working with, and who you consider to be internationally famous bands, I will give you some general advice:Lower your expectations - You may not get internationally famous bands and that's okay. Organizing a successful concert isn't easy, but if you put in the work, you should be happy with whoever you end up booking and with the number of people that decide to attend. Do your research - Find out how much these bands cost and if you don't have the money to afford them, find a way to get that money, have a better pitch, or book bands that you can affordBigger bands don't = a huge concert - People often think that a bigger name means you're going to automatically sell out a show, but a big name band to you may not be a big name band to anyone else. Local bands actually do quite well because they book more shows in the area and have spent a lot of time developing a fan base and a wider audience. Hope this helps! Good luck!
Is it worth it to spend $300 on a Coldplay concert?
Hell ya! If you've got the money and you're a big fan, do it!! i recently purchased their VIP package with my money, and im stoked!!! at first i thought the price was a bit much, but then i thought, "how often do they come around?? not often. something this special to me only comes around once every few years, so why not treat myself?!" just think of the amazing experience u will have:) like i said, if u have the money and ur heart tells u its right, do it! if money is that much of an issue, perhaps wait? :S or compromise with ur parents, find a part-time job, etc... good luck! :)
Friend is asking for money after the fact?
A good friend of mine texted me one day out of the blue, and told me that the person he was supposed to go to a concert with had backed out at the last second, and asked if I wanted to go because he had an extra ticket. The concert was that night (he texted me around 4pm and the concert started at 7pm). We met up at a local bar (since parking was crazy) and grabbed a beer before the show. I bought his beer because he was taking me to the concert. As we were waiting on the concert to begin, he leans over and says, "Yeah the ticket was $65, no rush though, you can pay me back whenever." This took me off-guard; as I probably would not have gone to the concert had I known he expected me to pay for the ticket, and that he didn't even mention it to me until we were already AT the venue. I'm not the kind of person to NOT pay for my share of the fun, but I'm also the kind of person who would never expect a friend to pay for something like that if I'm inviting them at the last second and the ticket is going to go unused anyway. What do I do in this situation?? Do I just go ahead and pay him for the ticket, or tell him tough luck and that he should have mentioned it beforehand?
