Sorry for sounding ridiculously stupid, I'm sure there is a really obvious answer to this slippling my mind.
Why do whoever has power over ticket distribution, at a guess Clear Channel (?), consciously choose to distribute tickets to brokers and scalpers instead of putting them up for general sale to the public?
Do they pay more for the tickets than us? Its not like the concerts are not going to sell out to us fans anyway, the level of debate currently flowing is testiment to that, so why choose to sell to these profiteers and engineer more controversy than to the general public?
Thanks for any replies.
