ticketmaster is suing a company from the Pittsburgh area that makes software that basically lets scalpers buy 1000's of tickets a minute.

Scalpers or legal ticket brokers are the big problem obviously

ticket master is garbage, seriously

better to go stubhub and sit where you want for a little more.

never got to see Garth live, but if you like country music try to catch a Kenny Chesney show. been too the last 3 Pittsburgh shows, always brings an all-star crew. This years was the best show I've ever seen, Brooks n dunn Sara Evans, Sugarland, Pat Green plus Joe walsh all there.

I went to Kenny at Verizon in Indy this year. Pat Green and Sugarland opened. Good show, but if you want the ever song to be a hit, then go to George Strait.....not exciting on stage, but every song is a hit......basically.
