Music, theater, gardening, travel, current affairs, and my personal life, not always in that order. I try to keep it interesting, I rarely hold back, because one thing I truly believe in is the shared experience of this reality we call life. We're all in this together, people. More than we even know.

Live Nation should sell tickets more fairly
The business of buying and selling concert tickets just keeps getting more annoying. I bought tix for Thursday night's Lucinda Williams’ concert a couple of weeks ago. I used the link from the Bank of America Pavilion to Live Nation to Ticketmaster, chose “best available” and got what I considered pretty good tickets in Section Three considering I didn’t buy them when they first went on sale. Today, just for grins, I looked for tickets following the same link, and for the same price was offered fifth row seats in the center section. And of course the tickets I first bought can’t be refunded. Hey, I got decent seats. I shouldn’t complain, right? But what’s wrong with this picture? Just goes against an American’s ingrained sense of fairness, that’s all. I guess "best available" isn't available for all of us.
