Was just looking at tix for Depeche Mode at the Garden, and the CHEAPEST are $431, and they're pretty much BEHIND the stage!!!!! Insane. I expect we would see similar prices for indoor shows by the boys......

Rolling Stones, always a trailblazer in the concert industry, were also the first act to take a cut of the fees according to founder and CEO from 1982 to 1998 Fred Rosen.

From a fascinating in-depth interview via my favorite music podcast.

Lefsetz asks when did Ticketmaster start sharing the fees with the acts he said not while I was in charge. Except for the Rolling Stones!

OT: initial price of tickets onTicketmaster USA

How does it work?
I had a look today on the presales for the Kiss final shows in fall 2023.
Tickets which are supposed to be initial sales (by opposition with the second market à la Viagogo) have yet changing price every minute. Sections 200 were moving from 500 USD to 1072 USD in a matter of 60 minutes. No fixed price at all for every section.
Explain please.

Dynamic Pricing. ONLY BUY "STANDARD ADULT" TICKETS (there is a filter for this)!

Saw Ricky Gervais in Helsinki tonight. He told all proceeds from his Platinum tickets go to charity. Maybe others should take note.

Hi Topi,

Yeah, animal welfare benefits from RG's platinum sales. I believe that the sublime Bonnie Raitt has done similar, albeit to different causes.

Cheers,

Simon.
