    I hope broski tour sell out every date or we ain't ever gonna hear the end of it

    It might not but that's by design. Ticketmaster doesn't want shows to sell out anymore because a sell out means tickets were priced lower than demand. They'd rather use platinum tickets to dynamically raise prices so it doesn't sell out until the very last moment when they've already squeezed every dollar they can out of fans

    Yeah I get the thread. And I get its audience. We're on a dedicated music forum, people are going to a***yze this s***. Imagine going onto the nba subreddit and complaining that no one in real life gives a s*** about advanced stats. You wouldn't be wrong but it's a dumbass argument to make in a space dedicated to hardcore fans. Yeah no s*** casuals don't care, but no one is talking to a casual here.

    I wish you'd stop trying to compare this s*** to sports lol

    Advanced stats are used because basic stats don't necessarily show how good or bad a player was in a game, season, etc. It's a way to give counting stats meaning.

    Music sales is a counting stat. It doesn't tell you anything about the album other than sales

    Floor seats in Dallas were like $330 a ticket a couple weeks ago. Which is outrageous. I think I paid like $180 for floor seats for Drake's last tour. But they've already come down to $280. Eventually they'll keep dropping until the show sells out. That's Ticketmaster's new strategy with "platinum tickets".

    So your options as a fan is to either buy tickets early when prices are their highest, or try to wait it out and risk the show selling out. It's bullshit.

    yeah I’m asked everyone I know that listened to it recently if they played we cry together more than once and only one answered yes. You can’t casually listen to that song.

    People definitely look at a lot more than just total sales over in the sales thread. Advanced stats is just applied counting stats. They do the same s*** over there by looking at individual days, per track basis, Spotify vs AM %, paid vs ad supported, radio play, etc... S*** the Billboard Hot 100 is in itself an advance stat with a proprietary formula nobody even f***in knows.

    It can tell you a lot. How effective promo was, demand, reception, where the market is at for everyone, how to handle the next album, etc and There's a reason why labels spend so much on researching numbers but let ktt tell you they don't mean anything at all

    Yall just don't know what to look for and how to read the numbers beyond face value

    thank you but those are not advanced stats either. They are using data to derive a conclusion which would be benefit them financially.

    Side note: you don't have a financial incentive to track sales like a label does and you don't even use it to a***yze anything lmao you just d***ride each other with it

    I mean it's by definition not counting stats. Once you start taking raw numbers and plugging them into equations to come up with new numbers it's at the very least a rate stat. Just because no one has bothered to create official names and categories for the statistics over there doesn't mean they don't exist

    You financial incentive is right there... fantasy football lol but let's say youre not playing for money, you can still use those advanced stats to make a claim he is the best rb in the league (which he is ) you can't do that based off sales
