tour promotion and pricing?

[elle]

so i've been frustrated with several things, even though i'm so looking fw to this tour and setlist - and i really really want this tour to be enjoyable:

1. venue sizes they picked - way too big, especially for next to no promotion connected to the tour, so far. since venue sizes are now set, i REALLY hope some promotion picks up - like, they should throw some money into sponsored adds maybe? they can learn from the last SN tour. for example, i look at the TM now, and i see Roger Waters, but i don't see BuckVie. why is there no banner on top of TM for BuckVie? you want bums in seats? well let people know you are touring! their social media has been sluggish, after it first started - why is there no real engagement? either with fans, FM acct, other acts they know who are active on social media and can amplify the message (when there is anything actually posted to amplify)?

2. pricing of the tickets - there's too small of a spread in prices. platinum tickets for some venues showed up after everyone who would have paid for them already paid even more from scalpers. meanwhile lawn tix for $60?? are you kidding me?? you need to have real cheap tix for lawn, some reasonable prices in the middle, and real high plats or VIPs or something upfront. meanwhile they have just all middle of the road prices for the whole venue, there's no spread of choices.

3. even when there is promotion, like interviews or review articles (yeah, yeah, i know they are not responsible for those), many don't end up with saying BuckVie are touring, but instead saying - "....... and they will rejoin Fleetwood Mac this summer for Classic shows" adding FM will be having farewell tour next year. seriously?

i can go on... but i needed to get some of this out.
