and have 2 audioslave tickets coming in the mail. Whoop.

They're overrated, but still better than virtually all of the crap that gets played on the radio these days. Have a good time.

My husband and I did the command and conquer method of getting tix. He was online at 10 a.m., and I called in. Timing worked such that he got a confirmation error at the same time I had a rep on the phone. I got a confirmation number from the rep, and we have two tix coming out way, too! See ya' there!

that's greatness ... I kept refreshing the website until the "Buy Now" deal popped up ...

I was kinda pissed at all the $3.50 "fees" that went along with it ... but it was too late to question, and hot damn I wanna see them there.

Audioslave is bad ass live. I really enjoyed it the last time I saw them.

Not to start another war, but you can thank your employer (CC/Ticket*******) for those. Fees are out of control!

echoes ... that was startickets.com - we're not even affiliated with these money-hungry *******s.

or maybe they got the idea from my employer? yeah, that's possible.

either way, it's the price we pay for the experience - and this should be worth it.

My bad, but fees across the board are ridiculous. A $25 ticket turns into $39 before you can whip out your card. Audioslave will rock though, but in the end it still is absolutely stupid the fees you end up paying.

We're eye to eye.

I don't mind paying for service when I recognize what I'm paying for.

No way does my clicking on a website equal $3.50. I recognize that these businesses wouldn't go through the trouble of working if they weren't making a profit - but it seems a little greedy to me.

I could either pay $3.50 and have the tickets mailed to me, or I could pay $3.50 and pick them up at Will Call. hmmmm .... at least I'll make 'em pay postage.

Ticketbąstard charges a ~$4 fee to email an eticket to you. It's absolute racketeering. I hate, hate, hate that company.
