How are tickets selling so far?

Don’t know the answer to that, but it’s an interesting spin. Although, I would think bands would want to capitalize on a percentage of total sale...if they are strong. Not sure how that would be negotiated up front

Yikes.
Can't say they don't deserve it!

The entire front section of the MSG show is up for resale on Ticketmaster...

Yikes.
And to think MSG was one of the ones that was selling better.

I'm no fortune teller but I see Mick on a Manhattan street corner in the near future yelling, "get your Fleetwood mac tickets here 2 for 1, and I'll throw in a free entrance to Fleetwood's on Front Street for free!"
