Mickey Huang opines that grassy meadow music will become more popular during an economic downturn. For example, at the "Simple Life Festival" sponsored in part by Uni-President Corporation in November of 2008, a large number of singers working the grassy meadow genre were invited to perform. Even though the tickets were NT $ 1200 each, tens of thousands of people attended.
黃子佼說，草地系音樂亦有在不景氣時越受歡迎的趨勢，例如 2008 年 11 月底由統一集團贊助舉辦的「簡單生活節」，請來一堆具有草地系特質的歌手表演，即使門票售價高達 1,200 元，也吸引了數萬名民眾參與。
