As I am sure most of the world is aware of the monopoly that Ticketmaster have regarding events, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to defeat them little by little or otherwise.
I have seen many campaigns, including one from before live nation was formed, in an attempt to prevent it. The juggernaut that it is, easily bats away any attempt to take it on, they are not even afraid of the US government trying to break up the monopoly.
They have been caught many times globally breaking and bending laws, and have a very unethical form of practice. Ticket prices just keep going up along with nonsense charges.
Would love to see ideas to help defeat them.
Stop giving them money?
Seriously. Selling tickets doesn’t have to be a million-dollar affair.
Odds are the venues that you’re going to suck and exist to take advantage of people’s low standards and excess wealth.
Fly to shows in Europe instead. Prices have never been lower for the flights and concert tickets are much, much cheaper over there. You might just break even after it all but at least you got to go to Europe instead of enriching ticketmaster
