You think I can curse on eBay question stuff??? I don't think I can express the stupidity in that auction without vulgarity.

Isnt the idea of holding a concert to sell tickets for profit?

no doubt.

i was just hoping that ticketbastard would be edged out by either bands, promoters, or venue owners doing a big dutch auction on ebay.

that said, if this is the future, you young 'uns better not want to see any dinosaur acts (buffet, stones, who, etc) because you'll likely not win that auction when bidding against deep-pocketed seniors...

...yeah it sucks, but we cant all drive escalades...
It sucks that that's how its becoming, but if I were mr. ticketmaster, or a guy in a band, Id just want the most money possible so I could buy more things and stay drunker.
