      From: rob.mcintyreNOSPAMPLEASE@sympatico.ca              We're somewhat protected here in Ottawa because the Corel Center has created       its own ticket agency (capitaltickets.ca) and some of the venues in Gatineau       are on another ticketing network (admission.com). But many of Ottawa's       medium and smaller venues are still on Ticketmaster so I bit nervous about       it as well.              I'm sure most people wouldn't want to be left with mediocre seating because       the best seats in the house were auctioned off. I am concerned that the       scalpers will simply then move on to selling the mediocre seating at       elevated prices. After all, if a ticket can be auctioned for five to ten       times the ticket price, why couldn't the others be scalped for as much ?              I've signed the petition with a comment stating that such auctions should be       kept for charitable organisations.              --       -----------------------------------------------------------       Rob McIntyre (Ottawa,Canada) / do you want to BUYMUSIC.CA ?       -----------------------------------------------------------              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
