Reminder that Live Nation/Ticketmaster is a monopoly, which is why it can get away with providing awful service, charging exorbitant prices, and tacking on fees as high as 75% of the ticket price.
It's a big deal that the DOJ is planning to file an antitrust lawsuit against it.
@rbreich Australian governments (state, & Commonwealth) have propped up-up LN-owned “Aussie” promoters & tours, unfortunately. Guaranteeing a multinational’s profits instead of assisting community-based events that build resilience and enhance social cohesion.
