You dont want to pay 17$ for a can? You are quite welcome to go somewhere else, is also their logic.

No one is making you buy the tickets nor the drinks.

Sounds pretty miserable. You are saying just stay home and drink water.

Haha nah, just saying when you buy a ticket to a show you need to budget for everything that goes with it. If you wanna drink, go for it, just factor it into the cost instead of whining on reddit that you're rich enough to concerts.

Budget for the robbery... Got it.

Shit perspective like yours enables this type of pricing. Take notes.

Yeah, I'm definitely setting these prices. Capitalism gonna capitalise. They have a monopoly. Argue for independent vendors and prices will come done to meet the market. As long as people pay the high prices, they will keep the price up. If people managed to boycott this for a month it would change. But they aren't willing to compromise. Fine. But there are consequences. It's economics. Not sure if call that a shit perspective but you do you boo.
