Tom Morello Responds to Fan Complaints of Rage Against The Machine’s High Ticket Prices

Posted on by

Fans of Rage Against The Machine were elated at the announcement of the return of the much-missed band for 2020. However, following the news that the band has booked a world tour this week, some expressed outrage at the high cost of tickets for the headline shows. Fans and haters have slammed the band, known for their activism and protests for being greedy at the high cost for shows (non-festivals). The band took some measures against scalpers as they have bought 10% of all the tour tickets to ensure those tickets are sold from the band – at a premium cost, but the extra money going to charity. In the midst of all of this, RATM guitarist and activist Tom Morello has taken to Twitter to assure fans that the high cost of tickets is due to scalpers and resellers. Tom claims that the full price for all tickets tops out at $125.00 USD. A high cost, for sure, but lower than many other concert tickets to other tours in 2020. Continue reading →

After Marilyn Manson’s abbreviated show at The Paramount Theater on Long Island last week, thousands of fans have taken to social media demanding a refund from either Manson or Ticketmaster. Ticketmaster has so far responded that they are NOT refunding fans for the show. This concert was already rescheduled once from the previous concert where Manson was forced to cancel the first leg of his Heaven Upside Down tour after breaking his leg last fall. Many fans have expressed both outrage, but also concern for the rocker, who recently lost his father.  Manson apparently recovered well enough to close out the the last night of his tour at Starland Ballroom last night (February 16th) with a full performance, including several encores. Continue reading →
