I wish them the best. Worst ticketing agency in history. sons of bitches. They have the nerve to charge convienence charges even on tickets you buy from the freaking press box... How the hell is that convienent?

I'm going to imagine that a few paid off judges and congressmen will look the other way.

To Ticketmaster: I hate you, I hope all the bad things in the world happen to you and only you.....

Cavaliers taking on Ticketmaster

The Cleveland Cavaliers filed a federal lawsuit against Ticketmaster Inc. on Monday, accusing the broker of acting as a monopoly.
The Cavs allege that Ticketmaster is trying to prevent the team's Flash Seats secondary-ticketing Web site from competing with the ticketing giant. Flash Seats provides season ticket holders a way to sell and transfer seats electronically -- a system that is superior to Ticketmaster's TeamExchange program, the lawsuit says. "Ticketmaster is using its market power to exclude competition and inhibit innovation," said Sam Gerace, CEO of Flash Seats. Maybe the Cavaliers will have more luck fighting Ticketmaster than Pearl Jam did back in the day. Jul. 30 - 7:20 pm et

support the Cavs... refinance with Quicken.


all joking aside... I worked for Quicken for about 6 months, and Dan Gilbert actually took the time to spend a full 9 hours talking to the new hires.

I fuckin hate ticketmaster. Especially how they use their position as the only major ticket distributing company to charge pretty insane service charges. Fuck those twisted bastards.

I try to avoid using them any time possible. If a venue is within a reasonable driving distance or if they take phone or internet orders directly like some HOB and Hard Rock venues then that's the way I go. If I travel and see a show that way it's pretty much impossible to avoid using them and I fuckin hate it
