De er begge ejet af Live Nation som også ejer Ticketmaster og Royal Arena og så mange spillesteder og festivaller i hele verden, at de i USA bliver undersøgt for at misbruge deres monopol til at skrue priserne op på koncerter.
Synes du progressive billetpriser er nedtur. Så er det Live Nation du skal hade.
4/4
