Why musicians are touring less and expecting fans to come to them

With travel costs and time becoming a barrier, musicians are opting for residencies and select-city tours instead of traditional tours, which helps them cut down on expenses but means fans must travel to see their favorite artists. This shift has changed the concert experience, turning it into an exclusive event. It's reshaping the music industry's relationship with fans and tourism, potentially leading to more localized fan engagement and unique, high-profile experiences in fewer cities. This trend underscores a broader economic and logistical rethink in the entertainment sector.
