<description>&lt;p&gt;Each one of the comment made above were done by people that have no idea what are they talking about.

I would try to explain by why bother.  If not for Ticketmaster you would not be able to buy tickets to your show period, and convenience fee issue is a cost of running business.  Everything else goes back to Artist, Promoter, Venue, Facility etc.

Just because Ticketmaster decides to list it all together why do you hate.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Ticketmaster pretty much controls the ticketing market and now they are branching out and controlling the artists as well?  This SUCKS big time.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
