Thinking of checking out a concert this summer but the ticket prices and service fees are too high? Live Nation has taken part of at least part of that problem. We received this announcement early Tuesday morning: Live Nation today announced "No Service Fee June" with the elimination of service fees on nearly 8 million tickets, more than 700 shows and 110 artists at all 50 Live Nation owned and operated amphitheaters for the entire month of June.
"A fan in every seat is our mission this summer," said Michael Rapino, President and CEO of Live Nation. "We know that's tough in this economy, so it's our job to find a way to make concerts more affordable. Starting June 1, Live Nation and the world's top artists are offering live music fans the experience of seeing their favorite bands with no service fees on more than 8 million tickets at LiveNation.com."
Tickets for "No Service Fee June," available only at LiveNation.com kicks-off Tuesday, June 1, 2010 at 12:01am ET and will remain in effect until 11:59 pm ET, Wednesday, June 30.
