And it couldn’t have happened to a nicer industry with all their bullshit fees.
Pollstar Good. I've had enough of being gouged by the likes of ticketmaster and bands/musicians charging hundreds, and hundreds of dollars to see them. Maybe a nice, big and lasting financial hit will make the greed stop. taylorswift MotleyCrue DefLeppard Poison
