What's Taylor's tickets going for now? I've never considered Norway anything other than a very wealthy country. That's not really the issue it hand here though. The issue is that it's very remote and traveling there is very expensive which would need to be factored into ticket prices which are already very high on these tours that we're seeing. That you think these concerts easily pack up onto a plane or a freaking car just shows you have no idea the scale of performance that you're talking about. Jason Derulo does not have near the stage setup that someone like Taylor Swift would have. That's just an indisputable fact.

Also, and serious question.....if these artists thought they could make money do you think they intentionally skip your country? These are now billion dollar events. They have actuaries that tell them where they can maximize their profits. They can't make their money in Norway so they don't go. Just like they can't make their money in Regina Saskatchewan so they don't go.
