A Problem: Excessive & Non-Refundable Ticket Fees…

Ticketmaster does not refund the $3.75 processing fee when a concert is cancelled, ticketFast charges or UPS delivery costs. These fees sometimes add to as much as 40-50% of the ticket’s face value.

Some ticket sellers and artists are looking at NEW ways to keep hardcore fans happy with the ticket buying process in innovative ways like VIP packages, bundling with downloads or CD’s, and ticket auctions for the best Concertcrowd seats

Verizon Wireless has recently forged a full-track, OTA (over-the-air) download deal with Wind-Up Records, The deal covers the entire Wind-Up catalog, including tracks from Creed, Evanescence, Seether, Finger Eleven, Drowning Pool and Scott Stapp.

Amy Winehouse could be the BREAKOUT artist of the year. She conquered the UK and it seems she is breaking the walls down in America. This Week Sales..77,300.

Check out the Shock Stars performance at the METRO in Chicago tommorow June 21st. Check out the track Baby Baby.
