What a crock of shit. I don't think it's possible to top Ticketbastard, but Live Nation does, or comes damn close............

This bugged me, and I did a search online -- apparently it bugged a lot of others too with all the news hits I picked up, lol.

Yeah, it's a bunch of bullshit. No service fees...but we're gonna charge you a parking fee, facility fee and take a bit for charity...

LN sucks. Same old as TM. Just a different web site to piss you off & more money to pay.

thanks for posting this.

we were planning on buying lawn tickets for no doubt. they are reduced price of $10, but there was a $5 service fee...but the sale today made it just $10.

Yeah, I got my DMB lawn seats yesterday for the list price - $40. I checked today and I saved myself the $12.35 service fee/ticket.

Hopefully they do this again, I was looking to get lawn seats for Aerosmith...

I tried to get everyone I know to buy their tickets for summer concerts yesterday to send a big message to Live Nation that they'd sell more tickets if they cut their pathetic "Convenience" and "Facility" charges.

I think a bigger message would have been sent if no one bought any tickets from them at all, just for a month or so you know... who knows, all i know is that we're going to be putting up with ridiculous charges and convience fees for a long time...
