@mej7516 We really appreciate it when folks contact their elected officials. Politicians are MUCH more responsive to their constituents vs. non-constituents.

🧵Here's a fun fact for those wondering why we are so focused on lawmaker outreach and on including fan voices in reform efforts. Did you know that Live Nation spent over a million bucks in both 2021 and 2022 lobbying members of Congress per @OpenSecretsDC ? .@JudiciaryDems /+

Law reform works best when lawmakers listen to ALL affected stakeholders, and not just those who write checks to lobbying firms. Lawmakers, we know you want to help. Please let us be heard!

LN's Ticketmaster division has been exploiting its monopoly power over the primary ticketing market -- and exploiting fans of live music events -- for years. We've got first hand experience w/ TM's glitchy platform, outrageous fees, and predatory pricing technology. /+

Reminder to media covering Ticketmaster. Our beloved ARMYs have been doing fan-to-fan face value ticket swaps and transfers FOR YEARS.

[TMTaskForce @TMTaskForce]

Oh, and shout-out to our beloved ARMYs who have been organizing fan-to-fan FV ticket swaps and transfers FOR YEARS.

[TMTaskForce @TMTaskForce]

Hey @JudiciaryDems we are still out here asking you to listen to fan voices. Let us explain to you why disclosure is not enough.

[Senate Judiciary Democrats 🇺🇸 @JudiciaryDems]

BREAKING: Ticketmaster/LiveNation pledges to disclose full price of tickets upfront, including any fees.

Our first hearing this Congress was bipartisan, and we agreed: this monopoly needs to be held accountable for hidden fees.

[TMTaskForce @TMTaskForce]

Because at the end of the day, Platinum is just about TM making money, and extending TM's monopoly power, by deceiving and exploiting fans. It's just scalping. Giving you a slice of the pie does not alter this fundamental reality @HYBEOFFICIALtwt. Don't do this to us.

[TMTaskForce @TMTaskForce]

🧵We (still) have huge issues w/ Ticketmaster's Platinum dynamic pricing tool. So today we are taking a closer look at TM's (bogus) argument that Platinum is fan-friendly and similar to airline tix and hotel pricing. @HYBEOFFICIALtwt /+

[TMTaskForce @TMTaskForce]

We appreciate - and support - the role that artists' management teams play in setting tix prices. We WANT artists to make money touring. But as the ones buying the tix, we also want artists' teams to know what the TM/ Platinum tix buying experience is like for fans. /+

[TMTaskForce @TMTaskForce]

We get that Platinum will allow you and TM to earn more up-front $$ on tix sales. But Platinum does this by deceiving and exploiting fans. Is this really what you want? For ARMY member presale? +

🧵One of the biggest issues in ticketing right now is Ticketmaster’s “Platinum” dynamic pricing system. We have huge concerns about Platinum. And we think fans’ bad experiences w/ Platinum should be heard @SenAmyKlobuchar @SenMikeLee @JudiciaryDems +

[TMTaskForce @TMTaskForce]

Hey .@HYBEOFFICIALtwt #ParkJiwon .@scooterbraun. Have you personally ticketed for a high-demand show using TM? With Platinum on? What about TM fan customer svc? No? Maybe being close(r) to ordinary fans' tix experience would help you see why using DP feels like a gut punch. +

[TMTaskForce @TMTaskForce]

To no one's surprise, our data showed that TM operates a flawed and dysfunctional platform that exploits fans and lines TM’s pockets at fans’ expense. We’ve been working to get the word out. + https://t.co/t1ne3EETtQ

[TMTaskForce @TMTaskForce]

Dear @SenAmyKlobuchar @SenMikeLee,

We are a group of BTS fans who came together last year because of Ticketmaster’s abusive business practices. We thought it would be good to present a summary of our findings and experiences in light of your committee’s upcoming hearing. +
