TicketTruth

Ticketmaster favors accounts that do not transfer tickets, to get in queues. A real fan who goes with their buddy, who is transferring tickets to their friends, is getting put in the back of the line for all future events, because Ticketmaster is a monopoly and they treat all transfers as "stubhub sales" and that is a threat to TM resale platform and LYV stock. They put those people in back of the line, and all the resellers who use "transferless links" in the front of the line. This is also why all queues are now 100,000 people. Ticketmaster also of course email fans say "transfer tickets to your friends if they beat you to the gate" with no mention of being placed in the back of the line for all future presales.
This is a monpolistic practice and questionably illegal. #ticketmaster #monopoly @DanWallLN @ScottFriedman3

Live Nation apparently took the week off from concert announcements to focus on its election-rigging side hustle. Nothing says “we’re definitely not a monopoly” like shopping for a government that’ll lose interest in your DOJ monopoly lawsuit. 😂

But don’t worry—we’ll return to regularly scheduled programming next week:

• The same bands touring for the 14th consecutive year.
• Tickets priced 30% higher than last year because the songs have apparently appreciated.
• More Platinum tickets than ever, because every seat is special when you remove the regular price.
• Another 1.5-million-person queue tour where the same people *somehow* 😉reach the front every single time.
And, of course, shit tons of tickets instantly appearing on resale—a mystery that remains unsolvable for the company that controls practically every other fucking step of the process.

Need to see me some fall out boy in football stadiums

lolz. Live Nation staggering the FEID arena tour (9am local) with the Noah Kahan Stadium Tour (12pm local) so the same accounts can get all the tickets due to the queue algorithm. 1.2mm queues coming up #ticketmaster #noahkahantickets #feidtickets

how are people signing up for Noah Kahan presales without submitting government documents and biometric data? Everyone is really that cool with this? #ticketmaster #noahkahan
