The face of the music industry is changing with artists having to rely much more heavily on ticket sales than ever before. However, some ticketed events, be it concerts or festivals, are pushing the boundaries. Taylor Sheridan is putting on a country concert with eye-wateringly expensive ticket prices.

Beyonce has already lost a lot of loyal fans this year with her Cowboy Carter tour tickets coming in at $300 minimum. Many of her hive have left, unable to justify forking out that amount for a, quite frankly mid, album tour.
Now, Taylor Sheridan is following suit. His Bosque Ranch Live concert features three mid-level country names but comes with a high-level price tag. Drayton Farley, Kaitlin Butts, and Jackson Dean will all be playing at the concert, and it looks to be a good time.
Taylor Sheridan is hosting the concert on his ranch. Along with the shows come an offer of camping, meals, drinks, and more for a price. It's a limited ticket event with only 500 on sale. But, for the price he's charging, even at the basic level, I'd be disappointed to see 500 people let him get away with the daylight robbery.
Tiered Tickets To Taylor's Country Concert Con
If you are thinking about forking out the fantastically high price for a ticket to the Taylor Sheridan one-day concert there are a few tiers to consider. They start at expensive and go all the way up to ultra-platinum, private jet-level elitism.
The first level, which only includes entry to the one-day concert is $500. For a bit of an upgrade including lunch, a BBQ dinner, and four drinks will set you back $800. These are the two one-day, no-camping, concert-only tickets. They don't include fees.
If you plan to get too twisted to drive, then you'll need to fork out for the overnight ticket. This ticket includes a camping experience on the famed Taylor Sheridan ranch after the concert, and breakfast the next day. You'll need to sleep off the ten complimentary drinks that one person is entitled to with this expensive ticket. This rather standard festival-style ticket also comes with a goodie bag.
If you're looking for somewhere to crash after the concert, it'll cost you $1,200.
There is only one more tier that I cannot imagine anyone would pay. Bearing in mind the three acts are only slightly known and it's ONE NIGHT, the $1,350 and $1,500 tickets are extortion. They provide either a pop-up tent or parking for an RV respectively.
I know this concert is an event Taylor Sheridan is putting on on his land, but when did country music become so elite? Watching the rich squeeze the everyman out of the music scene is stomach-turning.
