Normally I wouldn't post a press release (http://phx.corporate-ir.net/External.File?item=UGFyZW50SUQ9NzM2NHxDaGlsZElEPS0 xfFR5cGU9Mw==&t=1) from LiveNation, but there's some good bands included, and maybe this can save some of you some money.
I've taken the liberty of bolding some bands talked about here recently.
LOS ANGELES, CA June 1, 2009 – Today, Live Nation announced that it’s dropping service fees on more than five million lawn tickets and hundreds of concerts, helping add value and save money for fans throughout North America. The 24 hour event makes June 3rd the biggest one day sale in concert business history. Now that’s something for fans to sing about!
“No Service Fee Wednesdays,” kick off June 3 at 12:01 a.m., offering fans some of the lowest prices of the summer with no ticket service fees on any LiveNation.com-ticketed amphitheater show, and only at www.LiveNation.com.
