no ticket fees on Wednesdays

[woo.]

I don't really have a lot of info, and was hoping someone here knew a bit more about what was going on. I am sure that there are a million little loop holes that they have, but this is what I found.

starting this Wednesday (June 3rd) at 12:01AM, Live Nation will not charge ticket fees for Ampitheatre shows if you purchase the tickets on a Wednesday. anyhow, as you all know, Live Nation and Ticketmaster recently joined forces, so this is an attempt on their part to appear less evil and wallet-raping. I am partially appeased.

I was wondering about combining this with the PizzaPizza $11 tix, but I don't know if it will work. They do say no combination deals allowed, but who knows

Live Nation is dropping service fees on more than five million lawn tickets at amphitheater shows ticketed by LiveNation.com for 24 hours beginning at 12:01 AM June 3rd.

.

Whether in response to lower ticket sales or ongoing criticism about ticketing fees, the world's largest concert promoter will continue to offer a variety of “No Service Fee Wednesdays†specials throughout the rest of the summer,

“Summer concerts are a great escape in these tough times,†said Michael Rapino, who heads Live Nation said in a statement. "We wanted to do something that had never been done before and 'No Service Fee Wednesdays' provide incredible value to millions of music fans.â€

I am pretty sure this is for tickets purchased for participating shows at Livenation.com, which only sells tickets for venues in the USA.

The Pizza Pizza deal, while "branded" as Live Nation, is on sale at TicketMaster.ca.

Canadian's will not be restricted from this offer.
