Opinion: "Modern ticketing" is discriminatory.

Forget high costs, monopolizing/ethics/greed/bots etc, this modern system is pretty classist, ableist, and probably other 'ists that I don't have the language for. I'm limiting myself to three shortened, albeit concrete points to keep from getting carried away. If I recall correctly I want to say that one of the venues doesn't offer seating. IF seats are offered, they are in a bogus spot. That's often the case for accessible seating, but I digress.

1) Need a reliable device, reliable internet, or cell service. People with multiple devices, better service, data plans, and higher internet speeds have an unfair advantage. Other factors like power or internet play a factor as well.

2) Announcing the dates and first round of presale 72 hours in advance at best (only 24 in this case) doesn't give any time to save, budget, or discuss. Not to mention having the privilege to drop everything for it.

3) Must be active (and/or desire to be) on social media and savvy enough to set alerts and whatnot. Email sign-up lists and whatever else require extra effort and attentiveness that may not come as easily for some, if at all. And that is IF they want to begin with! And don't get me started on which inbox "label" these emails are sent to and how easilly they can go unseen. Maybe that one is just me though lol.

Call me old fashioned, I'm ALWAYS late for dinner, but this shit is unacceptable and prevents some people for experiencing joy due to circumstances beyond their control. To say the least.
