Son of a gun, those guys get you coming and going! Are all venues like that? I remember when Tom Petty and Mudcrutch played the Troubador, tix were face value, 2 per person and you had to show up on the day of the concert to pick up your wristband. Scalpers actually had to drive down to the venue, pick up the wristbands and meet with their "customer". Needless to say there was very minimal scalping.

When the Greek Theater was possibly going to be taken from Nederlander and the contract given to TM/ Live nation there was a heck of an uproar. Lesser of two evils I guess.
