While the live concert remains a singular experience that can't be duplicated or co-opted, the mundane act of buying a ticket is undergoing a revolution before our eyes. Artists are wading into areas previously occupied only by venues and promoters through venue buyouts and fan club ticketing schemes. Venues are experimenting with mobile ticketing and ticket add-ons. Promoters are responding to audience complaints about excessive surcharges and choosing alternatives to Ticketmaster. With audiences spending fewer dollars lately on entertainment, the stakeholders are all jockeying for a larger piece of the pie and even the secondary ticketing market is seeing its share of the spotlight's glare. Come watch our panel engage in a fascinating debate about the future of live music ticketing.
