When the kids get older they pick up on big shows in town, the 200 dollar Rogers Arena tours but aren't even aware there are smaller clubs with live music, ironically at 63 I go to more concerts in small venues than they do

Some counterpoints.
There are no rap songs in the Top 40 for the first time in 35 years.
My 21 year old son has music posters on his wall and took up the guitar at 20 and practices religiously. He's pretty decent.
My 23 year old daughter meticulously curates her playlists and has to have everything set up perfectly before she drives anywhere.
Neither wants, or can afford to, spent $100 on concert tickets. Gen Z has been priced out of live music.
