Gypsysara, no one said you couldn't.

But yeah...I guess that has a lot to do with the topic.

Who is Nickel Creek?

Time magazine named them one of the Top Innovators of Music, and their latest CD, "This Side", won a Grammy for best contemporary folk album!

That's who!

Are they different than usual Ticketb*stard stock?

Scalping is nothing new on ebay. What stinks is this guy gets all the fan club seats illegally and nobody does anything about it. Then he sells them illegally and nobody does anything about it. Yes, scalping is illegal in Massachusetts and in Connecticuit but ebay doesn't regulate that stuff no matter what their warnings say. This guy has tons of illegal sales to prove it. We're talking enormous profits here. It's not just a few measly bucks bootleggers get when they sell concert tapes and cd's they've gone to great trouble to record. I used to be against that sort of thing but now I couldn't care less.

Like I said before it just totally sucks for us fans who want good seats. These people have a nerve to ask for such staggeringly illegal amounts for the tickets. If anything over face value possibly a small amount for profit such as $25. to $50. per ticket is expected but thousands of bucks for two tickets, what a rip off

This all could have been avoided to some extent. Todd was given suggestions on how but chose to ignore them. Now he will act like they are 'looking into it' but at the end of the day it will all be too little too late
