They also weren't paying $20 for a 2-day, multi-act, camping festival at a remote venue. They were paying $20 for a bar show.

The whole comparison is nonsense.

Lol I doubt the Ramones were playing in a bar …

But wait, are you defending today’s concert ticket prices ?

You don't think The Ramones played in bars? Most punk bands did. Look up CBGB, man.

And no. Concert prices are ridiculous, but trying to compare a small, city venue ticket price to a multi-day, multi-act festival is also ridiculous and misleading.
