Sometimes, I think Live Nation and Ticketmaster are Just Lying to Me

Like, I heard Muse was coming to the Staples Center. But when I logged on at the exact time tickets went on sale, no tickets (except for a few behind stage). I don't really think Muse is coming to LA. Maybe they're stunt doubles.

No concert? Or no tickets left?

Tickets are all gone...

I'll have to check stubhub or something...

Had this happen in Atlanta on a couple of occasions with different groups. It seems brokers buy up large batches of tickets and sell them for more than the original price. I call it legal scalping but it happens all the time. You have to be REALLY flush with cash to afford these tickets.

Yeah, it's crap and it's really frustrating. I guess it's one of the pitfalls of online ticket buying :(

I really hoped that LiveNation would be healthy competition to TicketMaterOverlord, not a part of it. I'm surprised they don't charge a service fee to see if tickets are even available.

There are some great seats left at the Oklahoma show. Wanna meet up there?

[krylyr]

Word.

I don't suppose the show is in Muse, Oklahoma, by any chance?
