Go to shows at small venues, smaller shows have smaller prices. I’ve seen some great shows from headliner artists for under $50. Cheapest I ever saw was a few years ago, $9 to see Slipknot from 10-50ft away. And by a few years I mean 2 or 3, not 10 or 20. Sign up for newsletters from local venues and your favorite artists, check websites for schedules, you’d be surprised what pops up.

Also never had someone poop on the ground at one of those.
