Should I Have Paid $36.50 To See Die Antwoord In A Casino?

Posted by on Mon, Feb 27, 2012 at 5:30 PM

I just got back from Vegas, where I was surprised to see Die Antwoord's name on a casino marquee—especially at Mandalay Bay. I missed the Seattle show last week, and was still curious. I was also spending (and winning) lots of money on slots and black jack tables. Tickets for Die Antwoord were $36.50 per person. This seemed like too much. Should I have paid, and gone anyway?

For a split second I was thinking that those glow sticks were radioactive test tubes.

What's normally a $25-$30 show in Seattle suddenly costs $40-$50 in Las Vegas. It is what it is?

Their show sold out in Toronto and people were selling their tickets outside the Phoenix for $100. You missed out on an amazing concert!
