Release the dogs on them. Live Nation has done nothing but rip off concert goers and harm small bands with their ridiculous fees and contractual venue restrictions, and this is without even touching on the horrible ticket scalping issues that they refuse to do anything about.
If I'm also recalling correctly, if a venue is signed up to Ticketmaster they cannot independently host events - everything has to be done through Ticketmaster 🤦♂️
I may be wrong here, but I think this is an optional sign on, but they get something out of agreeing to it.
Also not sure, but I think it was something about concessions. Like if they don't agree, TM takes a cost of beer and food which is a huge money maker.
The option is likely just there to say it's technically optional.
That's terrible if so
