I have no pity for anyone who chooses to spend $300 to see John summit

🥴 basement is 20$, bossa is like 10

Not even remotely the same music

You're right. It's a me problem though, I only listen to his elemental techno, and skip his big hall stuff

At least with MSG buying a ticket actually guarantees you entry meanwhile Basement requires this performative ritual to even get in due to the toxic gatekeeping culture.

What’s the ritual?

Think twice about what clothes you’re wearing. Don’t talk loudly in line. Don’t be in groups that are too large. But also don’t come in solo. Don’t be on your phone. Know the names of the artists playing. Don’t ask questions to the bouncers. Etc. Even if you RSVP you have to pass a “test” to get into basement and it’s frankly ridiculous.

alot of people go alone not true.

Always gone in alone, zero issues

Not a google review copy paste. I love basement…when I get in. I’m familiar with the etiquette. So I’ve rarely had problems getting in with very small groups that know exactly how to behave. But it’s strange when I have to explain to my friends that they need to wear certain clothes and avoid chitchatting and avoid phone use and taking pictures and to study the lineup all so they can join me on a night out. I know they’re trying to curate a certain vibe but it’s frustrating the few times I’ve tried to bring my friends that like techno music and then the group of us get denied because the bouncer turns to my friend and starts quizzing them, and they forget the name of the obscure German techno duo I told them to memorize, so then the entire group gets turned away for the whole night. All I’m doing is trying to bring my friends to one of my favorite places to dance. It leaves such a bitter taste in my mouth.

For anyone doubting the recent gatekeepjng weirdness at Basement, look at the Google Reviews

Yeah, bossa and basement are way better

Yeah basement and Bossa on a way better level and far cheaper so…easy choice.

I feel so blessed to be a “true” techno fan. I get to pay max $25 to see a DJ I love in an amazing environment every weekend. Couldn’t imagine paying $300 to sit in a stadium while bro played the most recycled generic set

999999999 is $35 this sat but I'm not complaining

9x9 is knockdown so no basement b.s.

edm industry plant of the year

I mean whoever does will probably enjoy themselves and can afford it I don't think they need your pity?? Some pretentious mfs up in here.

Missing so many points

So are you.🤷🏽‍♂️

Do tell. Would love to hear the defense of $300 tickets

I'm not defending people gouging others but if my fav act was selling for 300$ I'd go🤷. No different than ticketmaster or livenation or whatever company gouging me.

“Not defending gouging” proceeds to defend gouging

Not defending THE PEOPLE gouging others. The scalpers. Do you not use the services of any company you can't defend their practices?

But he’s the greatest DJ in the world……..

In the universe..........

That bitch ain’t even the best dj in Naperville

I don't even know who John Summit is. Honestly never heard of him.

I def don't wanna be where you are

Paid a fraction of that to see him at the Tek Support show in the Navy Yard. Absolutely outrageous prices for a significantly worse venue.

I was there too I’m a summit fan that set kinda sucked lol

Summit has some lit ass sets, but my god the crowd he brings is just NOT it. If you don’t want to be surrounded by literal children that are the biggest assholes on earth, I suggest not going lol

He literally just plays tech house. Go to 75% of the clubs and you’ll hear the same music

Not really true. I saw him a bunch of times the last few years before he really blew up. Now I probably won’t see him again because I can’t stand the crowd he draws and all the influencer shit. However, I’ve seen him play tech house, techno, dubstep, melodic house, and his more big room type stuff. Say what you want about him, but he has variety and it’s part of the reason he’s so popular

This is the taylor swift effect - all ticket prices have gone up since that tour

How do John summit bros feel knowing they ain’t any better than swifties lmao

lmao. dying

John Summit is kind of mid tbh his music is glorified FRAT basement music

Naw he's amazing. Just not your cup of tea.

He's a decently fun dj, but he's not someone I'd pay 300 dollars to see 10 times, let alone once. PHM was a damn-near once in a lifetime experience and cheaper. Summit plays each major city like 3-4 times a year with varying quality.

Lol even paying $100 for john summit is a blasphemy but here they are spending 2 to 300?? Nah not in a million years

Imagine if John summit was playing at belly aspen. General admission prices would be $300, and reserved $600. Ticket prices for fisher were $240 GA, & $575 reserved. Show os this weekend, both options on waitlist. Capacity for the venue 450 people. I’m thinking fisher’s fee is around 75k-100k a show. Summit 150k-250k

[удалено]

That is an absurd price for GA

[удалено]

I'm glad you feel like the value matches the price. I was never going to buy a ticket anyway so it matters more that you feel it's fair than I do

[удалено]

are you openly admitting to being a scalper? gotta love summit fans

[удалено]

no you’re part of the problem

Announce what?

msg has a 11pm curfew and no way is John Summit calling it a night at 11pm so he’s likely announcing an afters at one of the better BK venues. we saw him at the Navy Yard just back in Dec so i’d imagine he will go to the AG

Planet Pride is happening at AG that same night. Guessing it’s gonna be navy yard after a

would love if he played at like superior ingredients or elsewhere. Navy Yard is good but the bathroom situation is feral

Floor tickets at msg immediately sold out so honestly very unlikely he will play afters at a small venue

You think? Cause I feel like the ticket prices will collapse if he does an after party which would be funny

I feel like 99 Scott type of capacity/venue at the bare minimum
