Judas Priest tickets have been going up and up in the past four years. Yesterday, friends and I got tickets for either Charlotte or Atlanta, but no one can afford both shows anymore.
Playing with a calculator I figured out that the sliding fee that Ticketbastard/Live Nation slaps on is 23.5%. Nearly a fourth of the ticket price is added on even though it costs nothing more to process the sale of a cheap ticket or an expensive ticket.
