Yeah. I stayed in a long line after the concert for an artist that I had great respect for since he invited people to stick around and get photos. Well, apparently I was naive and thought it was just that the line went past the merch table. When i told the merch sellers no thanks to the apparel and posters they said, "No actually, that's not how this works. You have to buy something for the pic" I guess my concert ticket, time in the line etc wasn't sufficient even though this was the artists first time touring.
When you have resellers and people monetizing their clips meeting the artist or planned gotchas you film when you meet the artist, non-registered meet and greets become less about the fans than scammers taking advantage of the artist's time after they've just spent hours doing a show or performance. I think registering for meet and greets early in pre-sale with offers extended to fan group participants would be ideal but thats more music artist fandom appropriate than a comedian's. I don't know many comedians that would even be the personality tyoe to want to do them much less monetize them. Seems like Chrissy really is a part of the new breed of young comics that can't let an opportunity for profit run by without feeling like they we're getting chumped or lazy.
He didn't articulate how you were feeling. Otherwise you wouldn't have been doing them, already. Instead, he articulated how HE felt and you realized how guilty that made you feel... so you stopped.
@@Valstein0 that's what every interaction is to anyone under 35 these days.

He said he wants celebrities to charge the ppl themselves at the moment you meet them. His quote was “yeah you can have a picture, that’ll be $20”. He’s all for meet and greets but says it’s wrong to charge fans to meet you and if you want to charge them then have the balls to do it personally. He said not a single celebrity would do it cuz then they would realize how big of a piece of shit they actually are.
This is why meet and greets at conventions are great, because the artist gets to set the price themselves. It can be more of a hassle and wait times can be crazy but way more worth it
My favourite band of 12 years meet fans after shows all the time, I’ve met them probably around five times and never paid anything except the show ticket
This is why I love Ed Sheeran. From the beginning of his career he's been doing m&g just through radio contests and stuff like that because he hates the idea of some people getting something just bc they've got more money
But the reason i dont like him is because he is so utterly shit. AND hes ginger. It gets no worse. How such ppl have fans is simply beyond me. Get some taste and stop funding tedious autotuned garbage. Ppl like you have destroyed good music. You must be a 20 something. The most useless mediocre generation we have ever had.
No. The point is how awful you should feel for charging people for a meet and greet. If they had to ask for the money directly they wouldn't be doing meet and greets. Come on, man. Keep up.
The problem isn't how you feel about it, it's how the artist would feel, your fans already buy your music they already pay for tickets to gigs and support you and your music, and you are gonna stand there for any length of time and personally ask and take money from the hand of your fans just to meet you, I know it'd make me feel sick.
ruclips.net/video/d3ZHGfcENuk/видео.html He talks about it at 1:06:20 Before I said it was a couple weeks ago, I was completely wrong, it was 5 months ago
He’s saying charging people to charge fans to take a pic with you is a shitty move… It’s already enough that they came to the show and supported you.. Asking for more is taking advantage of them liking you as an artist… I respect it… once u are at a place in your career where people would pay for a meet and greet the money you make from tickets and merch should be more than enough… no need to pimp your fans for another 25 for a pic with you
the original message was to not even touch or go near a fan until they look u in the eyes and physically handed you the money and to see how that made you feel. 3rd party things like ticketmaster alleviate tht awkward transaction.
It’s a tricky one. If you a multimillionaire and you charging then you perhaps shouldn’t but most artists are not all that well off financially and that extra £20/£50 from a meet and greet makes all the difference to their income.
no one should truly use ticketmaster. if the artist has their own buying page on their website, then i would gladly pay them the extra bucks knowing that they're being taken care of. the fees ticketmaster charges are both malicious to the customer and the artist.
Is it me or did this guy completely change after the Dahmer series came out, he changed his look and personality, before it was like a grown man child but right after the series he got the Dahmer-ish look and started acting little undercover mysterious phycho killer that women love in tv series
Not only is it a bit sick, charging someone for liking you, & having already paid for your stuff, it might hurt you in the long run as some people will go no thanks.
I disagree. The same thing could be said about telling jokes "How would you feel telling a joke to someone and then asking for 40 bucks." As long as the person knows what they're paying for and you're not just pumping through meet n greets without actually greeting them, I see no problem with them.
Lol his point was to not pay for meet and greets not stop them entirely. Fr just said "I feel good as a person, on a side note if interacting with my fans don't make me money, NO FUCKING THANKS"
Fans pay you by buying tickets to see you &/ products & merch, to change them for already liking you is a bit over the top, might also make you lose some in the long run
That's really what you thought he said? He said it made him feel like a bad person to have people pay him for a meet and greet, So he stopped doing them. If you think dead he should have just continued to do meet and greets but for free, then I guess it didn't occur to you how many people would stay after the show to meet one of their favorite comics that they spent money on tickets to see.
As a musician... Fans or not... I could never imagine asking for any compensation for a photo. That's why we have merch... These people aren't paying for your face, they're paying for your craft.
I still think they should charge its nbd. It’s their work at the end of the day, it kind of splits their work life from their personal life. Would you want to basically work for free half the time? No.
You could do meet and greet without charging people extra money but you gotta have an indoor venue for that that pays for electricity to keep the AC and the lights running, tables and chairs, etc. Those aren't free.
Said by people with a large audience who make bank off their tickets and getting on joe rogan, not thinking aviut other artists/entertainers who are not as well off as them. Bravo.
This is the same analogy I make when describing what posting on social media ACTUALLY is. I’ll explain, if you get rid of the cell phone and try to replicate what it is that you are doing while posting on social media it’s more like taking a megaphone into your local town center and shouting at everyone what you had for lunch today while holding a paper photo copy of your half eaten meal while waiting to see how many people you can convince to waive at you and say “Hey, Steve! Nice lunch.” We are commodifying our personalities for likes and indulging in overt narcissist behavior.
Please, if you got thousands of fans, you can't meet them all. You weed out the ones that you see by charging. You're selling a product and that is your likeness and music (or whatever you do), and if someone buys a ticket to SEE YOU PERFORM then they should buy a ticket to MEET YOU UP CLOSE. It's not like going to a restaurant, ordering condiments. It's going to a restaurant, ordering a meal and asking for extra/ double the meat or whatever, FOR FREE. Nah. Extra beef is not free of charge.
The meet and greets I went to are not like that at all . FGL played 4songs. We got to see their award. Take pictures up close . One time they played and we ate in super dome on the football field.
Def avoid VIP nation they give u a $15 swag bag and 5 minutes with the entire band and included in that entire 5 min they take one picture they email to you about a week later.
Thats dumb !! You are a human being giving your energy and time shouldnt be at no cost even if it was for a fan ..also fans stop you in the streets for free pics all the time ..its okay to charge for a special meet and greet !!
Glad he sees it for what it really is , ticketmaster charging for meeting the artist and adding on another charge for the fan . Do your own meet and greet, charge or not idc but DONT give more money . Get them out of your pocket and ours .
Yeah but I’d give $25 bucks to out of work celebrity I love and yea it’s shitty because an out of work celeb is just a regular person but a pic with them is a pic with them and that’s a service on their part. A popular celebrity is another story and that should be free
The idea was not to stop the meeting and greets it was to do it and not charge.
Nobody will have you on their platform to sell your tickets if they don’t extra charge
@@DickLongflopp if the tickets sell they don't need meet and greets
@chillary puff Surely if they have sell out shows they could do the meet and greets just to meet the fans. They have already made their money.
I mean this is assuming he doesn't meet with fans otherwise at all, which I would find hard to believe but is possible
That’s the joke
I think he meant .. meet them , greet them & take a picture but do it for free 😂😂😂
Exactly* this ☝️
Matty never said to stop meeting fans though. Continue the meet and greets.
That's the point, he wants to stop the cash, fans pay buy buying tickets to see you & other merch, to change them to take a photo or sign something is

This is a man who is not a narcissist. Can’t say the same about a lot of guys in comedy.
He can still do a "meet and greets" just don't charge people.

No. The point is how awful you should feel for charging people for a meet and greet. If they had to ask for the money directly they wouldn't be doing meet and greets. Come on, man. Keep up.
$25? Artists are charging like $300+ for meet and greets
I've done meet and greet and paid money directly to the person. Felt it was worth it
It's cause you like that person and you're supporting them. Like here is your pay to keep doing this cause I think you do a good job.

The watch punchline is great. Reminds me of Theo's "now we gonna split this plum or not?" Joke
When I found out people had to pay for the pictures they took with celebrities. I was and still am in complete disbelief
You missed the point guys. He cares more about money than his fans.
The sad things Is some do it like the women who pay a grand to take a picture with Chris brown grown women.
I think Chris missed the point Matty was saying…
I remember feeling this way at comicon when the artist put the money in top pocket for a photo
Now this band is on SNL
What if I just want to meet, no greeting? Can we do like $15?
