Just here to say ticket prices are so damn high. I’m not poor by any means but feel priced out of many concerts these days. I don’t see a world where it returns to the before times but maybe rulings like this will help in some way.
Totally agree with this ruling and labeling Live Nation/Ticketmaster as a monopoly. But saying we were only overcharged $1.72 per ticket in certain states within the last 5 years? That’s ridiculous
i slowly stopped going to concerts around 2022 because of the prices and because ive seen basically every band/artist i listen to at that point
