that's really just an opinion. and I'd argue that if people really care about a fair and sustainable concert going, given how ridiculous the live event situation is, you'd support pretty common and standard requirements like ID to be shown. as others said: ID is already required to validate age in many events/venues

Recent changes are anything but fair and sustainable. Front section tickets have gone from $120 to auction at $400+ at our local venue.

Can no longer pay cash, have a paper ticket, be anonymous. Those are much more important to me than preventing scalping.

Scalpers out front have provided a valuable service to me a dozen times over the years, when I didn’t plan well.

Any solution (I didn’t ask for) that turns concerts in an international flight experience means they are dead to me.

Age was traditionally checked separately and manually. Not put into a database to be bought and sold and breached.
