PowerTrip Festival: Crazy...But Not In A Good Way

PowerTrip Festival is a brand new heavy metal event set in Indio, California featuring 6 of the biggest bands in rock history: Guns N Roses, Iron Maiden, ACDC, Ozzy Osbourne, Metallica, and Tool. But are the price for tickets actually worth it?

I didn’t expect to be able to go, and was righteously pissed about the prices. A relative decided to buy GA tickets without telling me as a surprise, and I’m thrilled to be able to go, but it shouldn’t have been so infeasible in the first place. When so much of metal music is about freedom and rejecting the abuse of authority, having a concert that’s basically just for the wealthy seems pretty tone deaf, no matter how amazing the lineup is. I’m thrilled to be able to see these folks perform, as I wouldn’t get to see them in my lifetime otherwise, but the organizers shouldn’t be gatekeeping these experiences or pricing the average person out.

[@wyattsmetal]

I completely agree!

[@MVProfits]

Exactly. I am a capitalist... except when it comes to music ha ha. Metal was about passion, rebellion, kinship and so many other things. Making money? Sure, of course, but it was never about just the buck, and that's how these shows of late feel like. And rowdier crowds make for better shows anyway. It's part of the package.

[@colonelhstinkmeaner8547]

For that kind of money they need to add more bands.

[@docwho10th88]

I am so glad to have seen Rush, Ozzy with Randy Rhodes, Van Halen, ACDC both with Bon Scott and Brian Johnson, Scorpions, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Stevie Ray Vaughn plus a ton of other bands MULTIPLE times at a fraction of the cost, and these guys were in their prime! Who remembers paying only $8.00 for each concert? lol Hell, I was just a kid in Jr. High, but I could still afford to go to concerts with my parents weekly $5 allowance! If I cut just two lawns I could buy drinks, food and t-shirts and still have money left over! Even the festivals were cheap! The yearly "Texas Jam" festival in the Cotton bowl was around $15 for 1 ticket! If they are going to charge that much for Power Trip then they will have to gather all of the Dragon Balls, summon Shemron and resurrect Elvis, Michael Jackson and Freddy Mercury to be added to the lineup to justify that outrageous price.

[@saulsquatch2016]

Trade mark infringement using power trips name in the same business. This sounds like a Fyre Fest being set up in the us. Someone is looking to screw over everyone in metal. Way too expensive for nothing.

My mom wanted to get us tickets to go since we've bonded over Ozzy and tool since I was just a little kid back in the late 90s. It really sucks seeing her desperately want to see her idol one last time but having to reconcile it with the fact it would easily be a 5k trip. I wanna go I really do, but for not even a fraction of that I'm seeing Ghost in August with Amon Amarth, both bands which can at this stage very easily put on a show the quality of ozzy or Metallica. It's just hard to justify.

[@puckoster]

with ghost and AA on your schedule you're set for one hell of a time, so dont sweat about it. take your mom to that show, i'm sure she'll enjoy ghost (if AA is too much for her).

[@Littlefluffykittycat]

I would think about it and decide if the experience is worth it to your mom and you. I was feeling down because there has been a lot of negativity surrounding it, and my mom, my boyfriend, and I got tickets. All in all, it’s our decision. I do not have a lot of money, and am scraping together what I can and trying to get extra work to pay off the trip, but we are all so excited. We are also making a road trip out of it and stopping at national parks along the way, which I’m also super excited for! With more people we can split the car and rooms. For me, the ticket price is not just to see the bands but the experience with my family. We lost my dad 2 years ago, and we just realize we need to experience as much as we can, within reason. This is something that probably won’t happen again. People make fun of it, but we are going to make the best of it and hope it’s amazing. Just think if it’s worth it to you, and I completely understand the cost. The ticket alone was going to be the cost of our vacation this year, but we made the decision and have to stick by it now. Good luck with whatever you decide!

One thing I am happy about being a death metal fan, I don't have to take a second mortgage out on my home to see live music.

[@colinschafer5453]

300 dollar convenience fee. God damn. I don’t think I’ve ever paid more than 300 dollars for a ticket to a 4 day festival. And that would have been an expensive one too. Really is a shame. My friends and I had wayyyy too much fun going to festivals/shows all summer throughout my 20s. Was a great way to travel the country and raise hell and make memories. And really, it was a great, affordable way to have a vacation/adventure as a young person who didn’t have a lot of money. The cost of these things is making it totally unattainable for young people that aren’t rich kids. Such a bummer. This kind of greedy, gouging, artificially exclusive bs feels like the absolute antithesis to what being a part of these music scenes seemed to be all about. I’m not anti profits either. The downright greed is just shameful tho. I feel for the young, adventurous music fans out there. Sad state of affairs, indeed. 😔

It's too much money.

Love your videos! I was shocked by the lineup but I doubt anyone I know of will try to go to this, unfortunately. Still, I'm going to the M72 tour and the ticket for 2 nights/5 bands was roughly $500. So I think it's because of how grossly large the band is, and how expensive this festival space must be to rent. Also, would love to see some album rankings of bigger metal bands!

[@wyattsmetal]

I appreciate that thank you!

[@tjcaruthers5593]

Dont forget the corporate greed that promoters like these and institutions like LiveNation and Ticketmaster have a hand in ticket prices being absolutely inflated in value. One has to start asking the question am I paying to see live music, or am I paying to look at a ticket on my phone?

[@sargentrowell81]

It's been 7 years since AC/DC just performed, and when Brian was playing with them they were usually only doing about 2 hours if I remember correctly. I think they may have been playing longer when Axle was singing for them but I'm not sure. I would be shocked if they did a 3 hour set, but absolutely love it. They're the only band I really like in the lineup so I'm not interested in going, but it is exciting to have them playing again even if this is the only show they're set to do for now.

[@vaj5150]

Believe it or not, the seats were filled!!! And that was just tonight, Fri Oct 6! I have GA, and if they did not have the two side screens, you wouldn’t see shit!! Unless your crammed in the front.

[@JoeAnderson456]

I took my 13 year-old son and we had GA. When our shuttle got to the grounds, a guy boarded and told us that everyone with a GA ticket would be upgraded. We were unbelievably happy and I'm guessing they didn't want a bunch of empty seats for the areal shots. I thought the screens were really good and I agree, they were needed. I loved the layout, loved southern Cali, had a blast and I know my son enjoyed it. Hope you had a great time.

[@GamerGeek5]

This will be my first ever concert/festival. I am very excited and i want to see GnR and Acdc before they stop playing. I paid for GA and the camping with your car ticket. It is very expensive but hope its a amazing experience

June 30th 2003: Sarstock Music Festival (Downsview Park, Toronto) - The Guess Who, The Flaming Lips, The Isley Brothers, AC/DC, Rush, The Rolling Stones. Tickets: $21.50 (Canadian Dollars)

[@barrycarter7274]

This is absolutely crazy prices. I saw tool in May 2022. It was a seated ticket in London at the O2 arena (20000 capacity). The tickets were £80 roughly so just over $100. I would assume roughly the same price for the other bands for the same venue. Maybe little more for metallica and acdc. So if I went to the concerts separately then it cost a little bit more than the general admission tickets here. But 3500 to watch 6 bands? I would definitely rather go to 70k or shiprocked or one of the other travel festivals like that. That crowd is gonna be so boring. Bunch of 60 year olds with their mistresses

[@kamranivari5046]

being a young heavy metal fan total is an absolute joy but also an absolute struggle as I was born into a time where I have to spend whole summers' worth of pay at a minimum wage job just to see all my favorite bands at festivals, and there's no guarantee that the seats will be worth it and the experience will be all good. Just seeing the prices for powertrip just makes me truly jealous that most of the older metalheads got to see their favorite bands in concert for the incredible price of $20 per ticket which could you see the band nearly up close, and further they got their favorite bands in their prime which me even more jealous. I know this statement gets annoying for some people but sometimes I feel I was born in the wrong generation.

[@itsme0265]

I would absolutely go, since I am only 19 and didn’t yet see a lot of these iconic bands. But the thing is that I live in Belgium, Europe.

Ouch, I've not been to a festival for years, but I used to go to Reading Festival in the early 90's. The time of Nirvana, Soundgarden, Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr etc. 3 day tickets were somewhere around £40-£50 if I recall correctly. For context I was earning around £116 a week then in a fairly unskilled job, so less than half a week's wages for a ticket. It was a very different time though, that festival was attended mainly by young (under 25) music fans, and most people at the festival didn't have a ton of money. It wasn't a 'thing' for the well off middle classes like now.

I really would love to come and I’m trying to save up for this epic line-up! Although there are few problems that I need to solve before purchasing: I’m from Finland and 19 years old so I need to work really hard for the ticket and flight(s) to be able to buy them. The other thing is the tent camping (which is the only option for me and my budget). I can’t understand (bc my english sucks sometimes) if the price 199$ is for one night or is it including the whole festival time? Luckily I’m crazy enough to be spending all of my money on this. I wan’t to see Ozzy so bad even for once in my life, and the other bands are f*cking awesome too. Never have seen any of them live. And in addition to that I love to spend on experiences more than anything else, live music makes me feel alive! I’m little bit scared tho. What if I miss my flight or get lost in somewhere, travelling alone is a new thing to me and I would be all by myself. I really could use some company there, otherwise I will be so lost. How am I even getting myself from the airport to the festival place (and how much it would cost??)

I'm actually disgusted by the level of greed. If you are traveling to America I can give you advice on camping for free on state and federal land if you wish to save money. The national park Joshua Tree is near by also, but that may cost you 20 USD per night and booking is required in advance.

What I would give to go back to Charlotte NC in 1985 and see the Fly on the Wall tour after eating a quaalude, sniffing on the coke hitter and sharing endless joints that were passed around by everyone.

Guns N Roses are playing at Aftershock in Sacramento two nights later, and you get Queens Of The Stone Age, Rancid, about 20 other bands for a third of the price. Tool is playing two nights before this at Aftershock, and you get Megadeth, Godsmack, and about 20 other bands, again for a third of the price.

[@Lemmon714_]

I paid $39 at the last AC/DC tour in Charlotte NC. Guns n Roses was $59. Metallica came in 2019 or 2021 and the cheapest tickets were $378. They are such greedy scumbags. No way I will pay that. GnR is coming to Charlotte in August. I remember them taking the stage on the last tour and then I woke up in bed. I may take it easy on the Jack and Coke this time. If you want to save money on alcohol do what I usually do. Buy a pint of Everclear and put it into a ziploc and put that into 2-3 more to be safe. Stuff that into your pants to get in the venue. Just pour a couple shots of that into a large beer. It tastes exactly the same, but obviously much more potent. I quit the drugs in the 80's and I only drink when I go to a concert which is rare.

[@apimpnamedstreetmeat]

I mean AC/DC already confirmed they were gonna do one last tour, so I suppose it's not over yet

[@cindyanne11]

I hear you. I'm 51 and have not ever seen any of these bands live. I'm going to Power trip on a general admission ticket because the rest were just way too egregious of a price. It does make me wonder what they'll do if they don't sell all those tickets. Will they allow GA ticketholders to upgrade for a reduced price? I guess time will tell.

[@barbaraconny1898]

All these shows lately are great but I'm not going to pay that much to see any band. Thanks for the info. Rock on brother

[@Sj-kb2ei]

It was my first Music Festival and it was Rad some dude came up to me and said “I’m high on Acid, Are You?”

[@dannykrinkle4726]

This is an awesome lineup ... 30 years ago.

[@StageRight123]

Nah, just saw Iron Maiden less than a year ago, and they still kick ass. Saw Tool last year too, and they of course always puts on an amazing show.

[@joescambait]

@@StageRight123 You just think they kicked ass for old guys.. I saw Number of the beast tour , somewhere in time tour , Powerslave , fear of the dark . now that was kick ass

[@oliwia.black757]

At the beginning I was like " yay, some US festivals", after the lineup info I was "hmm, is it worth travelling from Europe" and after info on the price I think I should ask my question from the last video this way "Are there any festivals that are available to average human, and that do not require telescope" XDDD

[@wyattsmetal]

There are actual festivals here! This one is just....special 🤣

[@georgejetson1025]

Is it gonna be streamed ?

[@XCenturionX]

Better than current Bruce Springsteen tour at $3000 a pop!

[@wyattsmetal]

That's insane

[@harveyabram7304]

Hope he doesn't need peptic ulcer surgery. Postponed Phoenix.

[@davidvilchez2209]

Jonathan Davis also performed some Korn songs with an Orchestra while seated on a throne lol On a side note damn the cost of that pit pass is a flight to Europe. Jesus. I'm going to see Rammstein in The Netherlands flying from Florida and it is only costing me about 1200.00 for airfare and the concert ticket probably about 2k altogether including hotels maybe 3k depending on how much food and extra crap I do while there, but that is a legendary band and always worth it to watch in Europe if possible

[@user-td6wy7xe8s]

Tool actually headlined he first Coachella way back when we just called it the crazy metal show in the desert. I grew up a few towns over

[@JR-un7iw]

Yeah the prices suck-but…this is a once in a lifetime deal, especially for die hard AC/DC fan like me. I saw their last Axl/DC concert in Philadelphia (2016) and had nearly given up hope they would play again. I’ve got two pit tickets and am not looking back!!!

[@gabodds2221]

I’ll be there too man; will be in section 200 reserved seating..the wife needs a chair; otherwise, I’ll be in PIT

[@paulnewsom4988]

You Are Correct This Maybe The Last Time ACDC Ever Play This Will Be My 19th Time Seeing Them My First Was 77 Up To 2008 Never Missed A Tour Except 88 and 2015 I Am 60 Going With My Daughter and Nefew And Sister. The Bands Make These Prices They Want Fat Guarantees They Set These Prices I Remember Day on The Greens In Bay Area Seeing ACDC Van Halen Pat Travers Aerosmith And Another For 12.50 Whole Different World Then Glad To Hear You Are Going Seeing Young Fans There Means Music Won't Die Off

[@glenngoren4566]

Picked up two in the reserved area. You better believe it can’t wait let out let them all whine all they want about it while we’re rocking our balls off.

[@paulnewsom4988]

@glenngoren4566 Congrats At Least Your There I Would Not Miss This Chance At All This Looks Like ,,Last Call They Don't Need To Go Out Anymore So Like All It's Like Saying Goodbye to Seeing Them in Concert The Joy Will Be All ours

[@patrickkowalski8256]

I got GA and I’m NOT regretting it! I’m seeing AC/DC again

[@richardsanchez5444]

Fkk yeah it's something it's something I'm going to. Just got my package in the mail today

[@beenpeen0343]

This is why I just wait for bands to come to my town. I’ve seen Exodus, Obituary, Death Angel, Testament and many more and those are just the metal bands. That’s not counting the countless punk and hardcore bands that come through here regularly or the big mainstream bands I love like 311. And each time those tickets have been $70 or less. I’ve never gone to a big festival here in America and the only reason for that is because of shit like this. They can have good lineups butt they never have a large amount of bands for a good price. Just come to Ventura California and you’ll see plenty of great bands for cheap.

[@inzomniak9298]

i live in the coachella valley and theres already been rumors about the festival having to sell single day tickets due to the slow sales so far. Obviously its just a rumor but time will tell.

[@AlRightThenThanks]

PowerTrip is kinda a part 2 to two different festivals that were held on the festival grounds. The Big 4 , which had Metallica, and DesertTrip, which it seems like this is going to be its siblings. DesertTrip had Roger Waters , Paul McCartney, Neil Young, the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan and the Who. The setup for both Desert & Power are the same. Prices too, but no single day and it's not 2 weekends. Each performance was a double set with a few performers having an intermission.

[@TheIndustrialRetrospective]

I am a bigger Tool fan than any of the bands here, but they really seem like the odd man out here!!

[@StageRight123]

They're playing 2 nights before Power Trip at Aftershock in Sacramento for a third of the price, and you get Godsmack, Megadeth, Limp Bizkit (😆), and about 20 other bands.

[@bgrossman]

Mostly boomers will be going to this festival. Most of them probably haven't listened to Tool much if they've even heard of them. They're about to get their minds blown

[@TheIndustrialRetrospective]

@@StageRight123 if maiden and tool were on the same night, if consider this....

[@TikisPlayhouse]

i got GA tickets and went with my girlfriend and my best friend. despite it all, expensive af prices, shitty first day (super hot and was not very organized) i don't regret it. but ill admit.....there were some brief moments that i began to regret it, especially day 1. but its an experience that ill always remember.

[@felipejr9126]

im going i got the 1.5k ticket.

[@donaldcampbell9483]

Only $380 for parking...smh what has the world of concerts come to? Sorry but no effing way I'm paying 4k to see a show!

[@joaobento2967]

Hi guys is it normal that i still dont have the QR Code in the ticket that i bought? Let me know please thank you

[@Ripdoge]

I went to power trip it was awesome

[@hammerfix7241]

FyreTrip sounds awesome!

[@Louisejames23]

Gotta love the way they clearly aren’t making enough moolah on the crazy ticket price and have to chuck another load of fees on top…. Rock & roll! 🤘😬🤦‍♀️

[@captaingonzo3335]

Great line up, would love to go. However, I simply don't have enough children to sell, and can't make enough in time.

[@bgrossman]

Sell someone else's

[@reginabaggie851]

This festival is happening the same weekend as Aftershock. With these ridiculous prices and Aftershock happening at the same time (which you get more for your money there in my opinion), where do you think everyone's gonna be? Aftershock...including me lol. I'd love to see Ozzy & ACDC just once and have a redo of seeing Metallica again since the first time around for me wasn't great personally, but this just isn't worth it.

[@jacksonmarshallkramer5087]

That is absolutely absurd. That price tag is an insult.

[@mephisto40]

This is madness considering the biggest festival in the world, glastonbury, costs £300

[@swagdanker4619]

it's an absurd amount of money! The costs for hotels, food, & the flight even from Canada is way too much! i hope these bands tour by themselves, mainly ac/dc, because their prices will be less hopefully, but their age being ~70 scares me a little.

[@slayermike6668]

I saw this but I’m coming up with a plan to get the pit tickets and motel nearby. The problem is to subtract and add my spending and savings even predicting what I’m gonna do when the festival is gonna start in October and pretty much got time like about 4 months to plan this shit and the pantera with Metallica concert around the corner in August 25-27. It’s pretty Detroit rock city movie for me in this shit. But hey great video though.

[@damustaine5819]

Man I'm only 15 and have only been to 3 concerts (Kiss, Mastodon, and Ghost). Metallica has been my favorite band since I was baby. I still have yet to go see them due to the prices, my parents have seen them multiple times with many other famous bands opening, but now with me and my little brother we just can't afford it. I am also from southern Texas so the flight is going to be expensive too. Not only do I want to see Metallica, I've dreamed of seeing Ozzy and Gnr. Who knows maybe one day if they're still touring we will have enough money to go see some of them :/

[@vlcheish]

1:07 "thats one hell of a lineup" Yeah like 30 years ago. Maybe I'm just too old and seen too many concerts but the idea of camping for a 3 day festival for these bands would be hell to me. I wouldn't even go to this show if the ticket was free or more likely I would just watch GNR on Friday and bounce out.

[@siemenvanderkamp897]

Lucky I live in The Netherlands, lots of metal festivals within driving range. This line-up is great, but where are the rest of the bands. They'll never fill that terrain with a crowd these bands deserve with those proces.

[@johndrawdy1775]

I'm going with my family of 4. Plane tickets and rental car $2500. Safari tent: $3500. Reserved seating: $5,000+ Seeing this lineup? Priceless.

[@tommyz9192]

I was so excited for this festival until I saw the prices! It’s crazy! And that price does not even include camping!

[@toddpoppleton5303]

This is a special show. It’s the grand finale metal festival! Once in a lifetime. My two best buddies from high school and I are making a vacation of it and doing a dudes road-trip! I’ve never been this excited for a concert and I’ve seen all these acts but Maiden. I will be in “the pit”. I cannot wait!

[@thebannanaslugs2300]

Rich ass fool

[@gabodds2221]

Ditto man; I’ll be in reserved seating..section 205…hell yeaahhh

[@glenngoren4566]

I will Be there to super stoked out of my mind

[@tjcaruthers5593]

Two things about live rock acts, it's never a "special finale show" and it's never "once in a lifetime". But enjoy your time with your buds and enjoy the show!!!

[@gtralive-2024]

Adele Las Vegas tickets are 39K 2nd section by stage , not front!

[@kanervatie]

Holy shit, so many bands with members average age at around 65.

[@MVProfits]

I'm sending the video to my kids. As a threat I guess LOL. BTW what the F has happened to ticket prices this year? They have gone so high it's crazy. Yet some have still sold out, which means they won't go down... Metal needs a camaraderie vibe, and not just a "I'm richer than you" one. Besides Tool, which still have fans I know, this is quite the headliner group. But no other bands? That's weird! And WTH at all this gigantic floor seated area? It really is crazy in many ways. No clickbait here.
