Thoughts on Ticketmaster, pricing, and scalping
I just bought 4 tickets to see the Red Hot Chili Peppers in Pittsburgh. My daughter really likes them. Me, maybe a handful of songs, but I will go none the less. Well, like thousands of others, I logged in and got 4 tickets right on the floor right at the second they opened the websites. Maybe luck, but who knows, I was happy. Immediately, other non ticketmaster sites are listing seats were I purchased these for $75 for 3 to 5 times this amount. Are concerts just a resellable item anymore? I am tempted to sell the extra two tickets that I picked up in case others wanted to go and pay for my tickets and some. Its kind of a shame but I guess that is how things go. Also, you So Cal guys, whats your take on RHCP? Novelty act that has gone on to long? Talent amongst the goofiness? Having a lead singer with no vocal range? Who would think this act would of been around for so long.
