Alternative Nation : The Fediverse's largest alternative and indie music community! All things alternative music, from 80s college rock to today's indie and all the amazing alternative music in between. Welcome home, music nerds!

Some of y'all may remember MTV's Alternative Nation or 120 Minutes, awesome programs & incredible ways to discover #music back in the 80s & 90s...

Welcome, to the Fediverse edition!

Subscribe, share, & chat!

Share youtube, songwhip, spotify, bandcamp links, music memes, album art, articles, whatever! But avoid links to directly download music (don't want to get Lemmy.world in trouble). Songwhip links always appreciated!

See this post on recs on how to post!

The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.

We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

Summary: "Beyoncé is selling “listening only” tickets for her Renaissance tour. The seats are behind the stage, so you can’t see any of the set or dancing, but they only cost $157 compared to the ~$900 fans have been paying for regular US tickets."

haha!

Damn even Jill Scott is expensive??! I love her but she hasn’t been a Name-Name in a long time!!!

I know. It was like almost $300! I was already balling out of control buying Beyonce tickets. I couldn’t go any further even though Jill is my girl 😩

I paid $400 for my lovely parents to see Kem and Ledisi! Ticket prices are just crazy right now.

But truly, I want to see people while I can, while they are here. My mother said her biggest concert regret was not paying to see Prince when she could.

feel lucky - I got to see Prince in Ohio at an arena and yeah, he put on a show!

That’s awesome! You are lucky! I can only imagine.

If ever in my lifetime I get the chance to see Stevie Wonder, I will do it.
