couldnt agree more. ticketmaster are now joining in with their own auctions. when i went on the site on friday you could "bid" on tickets in the front block but you couldnt just buy them, the starting bid was 120 pounds.
its way out of control and its the fans that are suffering. new laws are needed on this now. on ebay some tickets for 02 were for sale at 400 pounds each. the music industry is still so hot and pissed off about illegal downloads "stealing" from them. the government should focus on ticket agencies who have a monopoly on the market, charging massive "booking fees" and touts fleecing fans at hyper inflated prices.
