Ticketmaster has been let go by their parent company
Apparently not making enough from exorbitant service charges, Ticketmaster has been let go by their parent company and will have to start operating independently with a $750 million debt.

In debt?
Good gawd as many surcharges as they come up with.
Some CEO had an exuberant income.

Trey thinks they are the cool kid
Yeah I'm shocked to hear they are so far in debt. Well maybe they will file bankruptcy and open the gates for more reasonable ticketing outlets.

sixstringer66 is allowed to buy Marc a drink and leave right after
That just means that someone was tired of paying their parent company money for doing nothing. Now the ticketmaster CEO will keep the whole kit n kaboodle....
