Ticket Masters: The Rise of the Concert Industry and How the Public Got Scalped is happening tonight at 7pm at Drexel University‘s Mitchell Auditorium in the Bossone Research Center (3140 Market St.). If you are fed up with the rising ticket prices of concerts (and you should be), then come join the panel discussion about "the evolution of concert ticketing and how ticket prices have grown so expensive for everyday consumers." It’s FREE and open to the public. The event will feature industry experts like moderator Tom Moon (author and former Philadelphia Inquirer music columnist), Sean Agnew (concert promoter – founder of R5 Productions and partner in Union Transfer), Josh Baron (co-author of Ticket Masters and editor of Relix), David Cooper (founder of Pearl Jam tour ticketing, ETM, FT&T, and Direct to Fan), Jim McCafferty (Ticketing Director of The Mann Center). It should be a really good one! And like Agnew tweeted yesterday, you should definitely come and "make this conference / panel fun and not boring and academic!” We hope to see you there.
