No. Maybe DC …

I actually saw him perform Songs in the Key of Life back when he did that tour, I forget what year. Also concerts are super expensive and I live a decidedly non-baller life. I highly recommend though if you’ve never seen him. Amazing performer and a Gershwin-level composer of some of the greatest music ever recorded imo. Much of it on Songs in the Key of Life.

  - Yea, if the tickets were 200-300, which I consider expensive, I would be all in. 2000-3000, forget it. It's all caused by enshittification of ticket sites... - By Rich September 12, 2026 at 08:30:53 AM

- I would love to go but the cheapest ticket I saw was $3100. Before Covid, concert tickets were reasonable. The built in market for illegal scalping makes it a nonstarter* - By Rich September 12, 2026 at 08:26:16 AM
