Making a Scene Presents - Decentralized Touring & Ticketing: Taking Control of Live Revenue

If you’re an independent artist, you already know the truth. Touring is the lifeline. It’s the one place where you can still earn real money, meet real fans, and feel like you have a shot at building something that actually belongs to you. But the moment you step onto the traditional touring path, you slam headfirst into the same old walls that have stopped artists for decades. The big one is ticketing. Ticketmaster-style gatekeepers sit in the middle of everything, stacking fees on fees, blocking real fan access, and letting scalpers scoop up seats before your fans even know the show is on sale.

The result is simple. You work. They eat.
