In the pj20 book it says that even though pj lost its battle with ticketmaster, atleast now they have their price seperate of all surcharges. So fans can see the price of concert tix and charges seperate. Now my question has that always been? was it because of PJ we see it different? or is it just on pj tix?

    I have Foo fighters tix for Nov and they have the price and fees separate on the ticket. I bet it was because of PJ they did this.

    Before the big battle with Ticketmaster only 1 price was listed...now it's broken down for the price of concert, fees, parking, etc..., but the bands don't have to break down their price...I wouldn't mind seeing the bands expenses at each show to see just how much they are making or possibly gouging us...

    I saw the who in 1982 13.50...arguably the greatest live band ever...now I realize expenses have gone up...but that much for some of these bands to be charging in the 100 + range...not so sure.

  • But i was wondering does the concert tix and the surcharges seperate now because of PJ? Before that they were combined so it was all one charge
