Personally I didn't think that this many fans would be upset and they're now trying to find a way to put the blame on someone else. Yet they have AEG who will promote the entire tour so in the end they'll just shut up about it, ignore everything and will let it go.

I agree wholeheartedly. If he said no to what they proposed, what's AEG gonna do? Have the shows without him?
Besides, he told us himself. He's a "CEO running a brand for 25 years." The CEO has no say about the prices? I don't think so.
Now, the booking fee--that may be an AEG or ticket company issue.
