#Ticketmaster's spectacular failure to sell tickets to Taylor Swift's first tour in five years revived scrutiny of the ticketing/venue/promotion/management monopoly, especially the #JunkFees the company sucks out of fans' pockets:

What's a junk fee? It's all the crap that Ticketmaster tacks onto the cost of your ticket, like a "convenience fee" for using a credit card. Once all these fees are assessed, *78% of the price of some tickets* is just fees.

A #ticket 🧵on Springsteen:

In the last 25 years I estimate that I have seen about 700 concerts & well over 1,000 performances.

I’ve written professionally about a slew of these shows, I’ve bought tickets during pre sales, regular on sales, day-of, & in the parking lot. 1/
53 of these shows have been for Bruce Springsteen. He’s the best live performer of the rock era & in ‘99 when the band reunited I swore I would see him every chance I could get.

The thing is after ‘99, he stopped having cheap tickets $50 & under) but he was always fair. 2/
I had some tours where money wasn’t an issue & other years where I’d sell books, music or other items to ensure I could afford the $100 ticket. I had better than average seats 2/3 of the time I went to see him but I could always find my way in the house. Always. 3/
