Sure but this chart refers to the most popular artists of a given time period. Regardless of how many concerts there are, there will always be one with the most demand.
If you could find data on the median ticket prices or something like that, you may have a point.
plenty of artists have concerts in the 15-30 range, not ultra popular ones, but also not what I’d consider niche either. I’d say overpopulation definitely could be the reason that Taylor Swift is so expensive given her popularity, but that ticket price also isn’t really representative of all artists either.
Yes, but there’s only one Taylor Swift and she can only perform for so many people at once.
You can still to see less-popular artists for a few bucks, but for the mega-stars the population increase is absolutely a factor because the supply can’t be increased while the demand is growing
Taylor Swift is the most popular artist right now by a long shot. I’d say less of an over population problem and more of a social media hype machine problem lol. There are plenty of other incredible artists one can go to for much less. Even Ed Sheeran who is very very popular can be seen in my area for less than $50.

more population means more artists and artistry, which means more concerts, but please go ahead and make this about “overpopulation”

my point was it doesn’t have to do with population as much as it has to do with capitalistic demand and monopoly/cartel dynamics

Taylor Swift is often doing three stadium shows in cities she is visiting. Her tour capacity is huge.
She’s not doing 3 times as many shows as previous artists though. Doing 3 shows in one place means she’s not doing 2 others elsewhere.
