The older I get, the less interested I am in seeing big bands. I'm lucky to live in an area with a great local music scene, plenty of independent venues.

I can't think of a single band I'd pay these extortionate prices for, I'd much rather support a local band and local venue.

Are you suggesting that others should share your musical taste in order to punish Ticketmaster?

[specproc]

I'm saying I don't need to give sleazy American companies money in order to enjoy great music, and that I put money back into my local economy when I go out for a gig.

Regardless of taste, it's mostly up to consumers to keep prices in check, by saying No at some point
