I went to go see Pantera and Lamb of God on Saturday and all of the 4 sites I checked had at least a $30 fee per ticket, with zero explanation of what that fee was for. The tickets were priced from $60 on up and then once you select a ticket they slap on the $30 fee! Parking was also $45, and beer was $20.

I just had a ticketmaster subsidiary charge me taxes on two tickets in a state where we have zero sales tax.

  Fuckers. I was expecting to pay the sales tax on top of their fee, but I guess they were nice and rolled that in for me.
  
  I did see one site that had the $30 fee per ticket and then a $2.50 service charge for the e-delivery.

I saw Megadeth front row for like $30 in the early 2000s 😭 their goodbye tour was like $400 a seat

  Yeah, that sucks balls. I wanted to go to The Big 4 Tour but upper level tickets were in the hundreds.
