Says who? Where are the statistics to back this up? I could just as easily claim that Imogen Heap is being fed some bs story by her label cos they don't wanna pay her.

As said above, if you don't go through Ticketmaster (which charges unbelievable "convenience" fees), you don't go.

I guess you'd know that if you went regularly to gigs in the US. I'm not in the US, so I wouldn't know this. This shows how people conveniently generalize and stereotype, in order to compress their issues down to the soundbite-format Twitter operates with.

In other words, Twitter continues to make the world more dumb. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised about that.

Get with the program dood, people are not dumb, they are just part of the distributed cloud brain. Individual cathedral mind is no longer necessary, for we have the wisdom of the crowd with its addiction to updates. The sheer mass ensures somebody will always be updating somewhere and giving you the precise tidbits you need. Who is doing what, saying what, partying where. The zeitgeist has spoken, now you must listen or risk irrelevance and laughter. No, not laughter. Tittering.
