Legit not arguing but other than going to the physical box office, what alternatives are there to Ticketmaster? I would love to know so I can stop giving them money.

Absolutely. There is no real alternative for most people but at least it isn't a necessity. They have a nice monopoly going.

Just go to venues where you buy direct.

I try when possible but time and distance, and some lack box offices, don't always make this an option. I can't afford the overpriced shows anyway.

Go to venues that you deal with them direct. Is it really important that you see the most popular musician at the best venue or is it more important that you heard some fun music with your friends? Make a decision and live with the decision
