That is just my thoughts . Pa. WXTU, is running ads for a ticket 'agency' selling tickets to Mr. Brooks' Philadelphia shows. Mr. Brooks, i don't think so. I don't blame Mr. Brooks, his management, or concert promoters. However, I do take exception to the radio station running ads for a 'business' that blatantly gouges the public.
Country music is supposed to be the voice of the common man.
There were many people such as myself who had to work the day tickets went on sale, or people who couldn't get through on the phone, or people who simply couldn't afford the tickets. I ask my fellow country music fans out there to let our voices be heard, we would rather not see our favorite performers rather than let some 3rd party get rich off of someone else's hard work. I agree that scalping is a problem, but I'll play devil's advocate here. No reason to deny those folks a living when they are providing a service that is in demand. The solution is not to ban them from doing business but to reduce the demand for the product.
