Anyone who’s bought a concert ticket in the last decade, maybe 20 years, no matter what your politics are, knows it's a conundrum. You buy a ticket for 100 bucks, by the time you check out it's 170, you don't know what you're getting charged for. But more importantly, these bots, you know, they come in, they get all the good tickets to your favorite shows you want to go to, and they are re-listed immediately for sometimes a 400, 500 percent markup. And the artists don’t see any of that money. And ultimately, I think this is a great first step. I would love, down the road, if there would be some legislation that we can actually put a cap on the resale of tickets.”
