It’s not just billionaires either. It’s current and former LEOs and military, small business owners, blue and white collar workers, unemployed people, etc.

So this Rolling Stone article is making The Rounds on Bluesky, and I might as well throw in my 2 cents, which is probably worth not even that, but whatever: www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

I went to my first Coachella to *save* money. It was $80 per day then, and you could buy a single-day ticket. Given all the bands I wanted to see, $80 was a bargain.
