How this dude gets all these tickets is beyond me, especially considering he's (supposedly) in Canada. Years ago, I was at a Tower Records in the Valley waiting for Stevie tix to go on sale. The guy in front was buying dozens of tickets for a special John Fogerty show at the House of Blues and it was SO obviously the cashier was in on it and/or getting a kick-back.

I think all this ticket broker crap should be completely banned and regulated in some form. It's just criminal.
It's all an inside job but nobody gives a ****. If all these corporations, CEOs, CFOs and board members can get away with robbing American stockholders, pensioneers, workers, and get away with it, why should FM or their people give a **** about fan club members getting the shaft? Small potatoes.
