"I personally think this is an awful idea!!!"
"I do not like the idea of ''auctionibg off tickets to the highest bidder'' it's not fair to those of us who are not rich."
"why should the fans be punished? "
"does not make any sense"
"Why should only those with the most money be afforded the opportunity to the best seats? Do not change a thing in the way tickets are currently sold, except perhaps releasing all tickets at the same time."
"Tickets should be bought my an artists' biggest fans, not the richest.... This is an absolute shame that it is even being considered......"
"I THINK THAT THIS IS THE MOST APPOLLING THING THAT I HAVE EVER HEARD!!! YOU SAY THAT THIS IS FOR THE "TRUE FANS" NOT THE "RICHEST FANS", BUT GUESS WHAT........YOU HAVE TO HAVE ALOT OF MONEY TO BE THE HIGHEST BIDDER!!!! NOT ALL OF US "TRUE FANS" HAVE HUN"
"People like you are what is wrong with the world. Some people look forward to seeing a certain person every year, but simply can't afford to pay that much. Money doesn't get you everything, I hope one day you will be middle class and not know how hard mon"
" The best tickets should go to the fans not the highest bidder."
"I think this is totally unfair and assinine! Once again greed takes hold. When people quit going to these shows because of ticket prices..maybe they will learn their lesson! Little people unite!"
"This isnt right !!!"
"This is CRAZY! Some of us common folks can't afford the high prices this could cause, set the prices and leave it alone!!!! "
"Most artists don't measure their biggest fans as being the ones who can afford to pay the most to see them, but as the ones who get the most joy out of their music. Using an auction method of selling tickets may exclude some lower income fans from being "
"If this happens, every day working Joes and Janes like me will not be able to afford tickets to concerts. That would be SO WRONG."
"This proposed plan will assure that only the wealthiest fans will be able to attend. Shame on you."
"Keep the prices the way they are now."
"dont rip off the fans. the ''little people'' should have 1st dibs on tickets that youre doing is wrong!!!"
"I think that raising ticket prices would make concerts yet another thing that the average American could not enjoy. You'd be right up there with baseball games, basketball games, etc. What are middle class Americans suppose to do for entertainment?"
"Ticketmaster is a monopoly that needs to be brought under control or broken up. This new ploy to fatten their bottom line DEMANDS attention from our lawmakers."
"very unfair, what about the people who spend their hard earned money on a concert, because that is the only vacation they can afford?"
"This is a ridiculous idea that will only make it impossible for fans that don't have hundred of dollars to blow on concert tickets to get good seats to the acts they want to see. Think about what you're doing."
"This new thing really sucks!"
"I agree that you should not be able to auction off those tickets. It is an unfair practice."
"I Love going to concerts of my favorite artists,,,to enjoy them and have fun. It is terrible to think that might not be possible anymore due to the fact that Ticketmaster is going to change their policy..Going to concerts is to be fun...not having to wor"
"This is an outrage and Ticketmaster should be ashamed of themselves."
