Why Ticketmaster Isn’t to Blame for High Ticket Prices

When it comes to buying concert or event tickets, frustration over high prices is a common experience, and Ticketmaster often takes the brunt of the blame. However, the reality is more complex than it may seem. While Ticketmaster is a key player in the ticketing industry, several other factors contribute to the soaring costs of tickets, many of which are beyond their control. Here are 10 reasons why Ticketmaster may not be solely responsible for the high prices, shedding light on where the real money is going.

  1. Artist Pricing Decisions: Many artists or their management teams set the base price for tickets, especially for VIP packages and premium seating, aiming to maximize revenue. A LOT of decisions go into this. What similar artists are on tour at the same time? Who sold out? Who didn’t? And what was their price range?
  2. Demand-Driven Dynamic Pricing: Ticket prices often increase due to dynamic pricing models, which adjust based on supply and demand, a strategy used to prevent resale and scalping. Guess who decides the increase? The artist, management, and agent. Every single company in the world does this – charge too little for your product, get popular, and you have to make a decision to keep the price, or raise them and risk a lower amount of customers.
  3. Venue Fees: Venues often impose additional fees for maintenance, security, and operations, which are passed on to the consumer. The venue has to stay in business, and collects a fee for each ticket sold. Anyone who saw the sheer amount of venues close post-COVID knows how valuable these places are to a music fan.
  4. Promoter Costs: Promoters, responsible for organizing and marketing concerts, sometimes set higher prices to cover their expenses and ensure profit. They’re putting up the risk, and should be rewarded for when shows sell-out, since they often lose money when they don’t.
  5. Production Costs: Large tours involve significant costs for staging, lighting, sound, and logistics, which are reflected in ticket prices. If you think you’re paying too much in gas, food, and hotels, imagine what tours that bring in a staff the size of a small town are paying.
  6. Market Scalping and Resellers: Third-party ticket resellers and scalpers frequently inflate prices on secondary markets, making tickets appear more expensive. Artists have been recently fed up seeing their hard-earned work and pay go into a third-party scalpers hands. Maybe artists are finally realizing they might have undervalued the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see them live, if tickets are selling for 10 times on the secondary market.
  7. Limited Ticket Availability: High-demand events with limited tickets naturally drive up prices, sometimes beyond what Ticketmaster or the artist intended. Fans need to stop thinking they deserve to see their favourite band when 10 million others want to see them, too.
  8. Local Taxes and Surcharges: Government taxes and local surcharges are added to the ticket price, contributing to the overall cost. Not much you can do about this.
  9. Service and Convenience Fees: While Ticketmaster charges service fees, these are common across ticketing platforms and are often used to cover operational expenses like technology and customer support. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather take my shot online, than lining up in the streets for days and nights. Fun times, but my back hurts.
  10. Consumer Willingness to Pay: Ultimately, fans are willing to pay premium prices for popular events, which can drive market rates higher regardless of the original price set by Ticketmaster. Notice the artist doesn’t reveal ticket prices anymore when announcing the tour like they used to?

So, the next time you’re cursing Ticketmaster for the price tag on your dream concert tickets, remember—there’s a whole orchestra of factors playing behind the scenes. From artists and promoters to production costs and scalpers, it’s a complex system that goes beyond a single player. Ticketmaster isn’t the villain here—they’re just one piece of the puzzle. And let’s be honest: if you’re willing to pay for that once-in-a-lifetime experience, the market will keep moving. At the end of the day, we all just want to be there when the lights go down.

UK Creative Worker Visa for Musician: One of the Best ways to Enhance your Career

By Mitch Rice

There are many musicians across the globe that wish to showcase their talents in the UK. But how do you go about it? In short, being granted a creative worker visa could provide you with the opportunity to legally introduce your music to the UK and potentially elevate your career to new heights. 

What is the Creative Worker Visa UK?

Designed for foreign nationals, the creative worker visa UK is for creative professionals who work in industries such as film, music, dance and photography. If granted, it allows holders the right to stay and work in the UK on a temporary basis for up to 2 years in order to partake in permitted creative work. 

Though the creative worker visa UK provides its holders with a chance to enhance their career and global notability, it is worth noting that it cannot be used as a route to permanent residency, also known as ‘indefinite leave to remain’. 

Why the Creative Worker Visa is Ideal for Musicians in the UK

So, what are the benefits of obtaining a creative worker visa? Simply put, it allows you the chance to travel to, live and work creatively in the UK for a generous period of time. Here, you can showcase your music to a global audience quickly.

The UK music scene is absolutely huge, and superbly multicultural, meaning your music can get distributed to a wide variety of people all at the same time. As it is popular with people across the globe and is known for its high international standing, if you do become successful in the UK, chances are you could become extremely well known or famous across different countries and perhaps make a lot of money in the process.

Musicians can discover which of their work can work best for different audiences and take advantage of the industry’s brilliant advertising and ‘word of mouth’ strategies. It offers you the chance to scale up your work, discover ways to improve it, and find out what works best in order to gain more success and elevate your career in the long term..

In addition, the UK itself has much to offer foreign nationals in general. Visitors can explore the wide variety of cultures and heritages, expanding their knowledge base and skill set. There are also many historical sites and areas of outstanding natural beauty within the UK that are easily accessible, perfect for those days off!

Am I Eligible to Apply for a Creative Worker Visa UK?

There are various immigration rules and regulations to be considered when applying for a creative worker visa and in order to obtain one, all applicants must meet strict requirements to satisfy the UK’s home office. 

Some creative professionals may be refused entry and have their application denied if it is determined that there are grounds to do so. For example, if an applicant has a history of breaching immigration laws or, in some cases, an extensive criminal history, it is unlikely that they will be granted this visa type to enter the UK.  

What are the Eligibility Requirements for the Creative Worker Visa for Musicians?

In order to be successful in your application for a creative worker visa, you must meet all of the general requirements and score at least 40 points on the UK’s new points-based immigration system. For example, budding international musicians must be able to demonstrate that:

  1. They can make a unique contribution to the UK’s labour market.
  2. Have at least £1270 in their possession in order to sufficiently support themselves.
  3. Are paid at least the minimum salary as set out by regulated trade bodies for their work.
  4. Hold a certificate of sponsorship from a valid sponsor.

In order to obtain the required 40 points, each applicant must be awarded a valid certificate of sponsorship (30 points) and prove they meet the financial requirements set out above (10 points). In addition, applicants must be able to provide a series of valid legal documents to support their application. 

Certificate of Sponsorship

To apply for a creative worker visa, you must be issued a certificate of sponsorship from a valid sponsor before you make your application. All sponsors must hold a valid sponsor licence to apply for the certificate on your behalf. There are certain requirements that both you (the employee) and the sponsor (the employer) must meet in order for a certificate to be granted. There are also some costs to consider when applying for this certificate. However, help is available to secure a certificate of sponsorship and it is probably wise to gain some advice before attempting an application. Click here for further information.

How Do I Apply for a Creative Worker Visa?

Once you have obtained a certificate of sponsorship from a valid sponsor and have gathered the funds and the evidence needed to support your application, you can apply online for a creative worker visa on the Gov.UK website under the temporary work visa section. 

Before you begin, it is probably wise to read the guidance set out by the UK’s Home Office so that you are up to date with everything you need to be successful in your application. Providing accurate biometric information and supporting documents can help speed up your application and ensure the process runs as smoothly as possible. Then all that’s left to do is await your decision!

Linkin Park Announce New Music and Tour And A New Lead Singer

LINKIN PARKMike Shinoda, Brad Delson, Phoenix, Joe Hahn, alongside new members Emily Armstrong [of critically acclaimed band Dead Sara] as co-vocalist and Colin Brittain [songwriter/producer for G Flip, Illenium, One OK Rock] as drummer—share their first brand new music in seven years.

The iconic band shared a deluge of treats for fans: a new single (HERE) and video (premiering HERE at 4pm PT/7pm ET), for “The Emptiness Machine,” plus a global livestream performance (happening now HERE and available only for 24 hours), and the launch of 6 upcoming arena shows in Los Angeles, New York, Hamburg, London, Seoul, and Bogota as part of the From Zero World Tour. LP Underground fan club exclusive pre-sales start September 6 and general on-sales September 7. Go to LinkinPark.com for more info.

These surprises herald the arrival of LINKIN PARK’s first album since 2017, FROM ZERO, on November 15. Pre-order/Pre-save HERE via Warner Records.

Tomorrow, Friday September 6th, the band joins long-time friend and Apple Music host Zane Lowe for an in-depth candid conversation about the incredible legacy of Linkin Park, the 7-year long journey to new music and their excitement for the future. Fans can tune in at 6AM PT to watch the full interview HERE.

Without expectations, Shinoda, Delson, Farrell, and Hahn quietly began meeting up again in recent years. Rather than “trying to restart the band,” their instinct was to simply spend more time together, and reconnect with the creativity and camaraderie that has been at the core of their friendship since college. During this time, they invited various friends and cohorts to join them in the studio; among the guests, they found a special kinship with Armstong and Brittain. A natural chemistry drew these musicians back into its gravitational pull as they logged more and more hours in the studio. It was the sound of lifelong musicians rediscovering the uncontainable energy of a new beginning once again. Over this season, FROM ZERO was born.

About the new era, Shinoda stated, “Before LINKIN PARK, our first band name was Xero. This album title refers to both this humble beginning and the journey we’re currently undertaking. Sonically and emotionally, it is about past, present, and future—embracing our signature sound, but new and full of life. It was made with a deep appreciation for our new and longtime bandmates, our friends, our family, and our fans. We are proud of what LINKIN PARK has become over the years, and excited about the journey ahead.”

Right out of the gate, “The Emptiness Machine” channels the DNA of LINKIN PARK, harnessing the band’s explosive energy and retaining the hallmarks of their instantly identifiable and inimitable sound. A chameleonic and catchy anthem, Shinoda’s hypnotic melodies hand off to Armstrong’s blistering chorus, over distorted riffs and head-nodding drums.

Shinoda elaborated, “The more we worked with Emily and Colin, the more we enjoyed their world-class talents, their company, and the things we created. We feel really empowered with this new lineup and the vibrant and energized new music we’ve made together. We’re weaving together the sonic touchpoints we’ve been known for and still exploring new ones.”

Ultimately, with FROM ZERO, the band is looking to harness the purest energy of their past, present, and future. The new era has officially begun.

Julian Lennon Releases Reimagined Version of “I Should Have Known”

Julian Lennon, Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter, releases a reimagined version of his fan favorite, “I Should Have Known,” now available to stream on Apple Music, Spotify and YouTube. This track emerges from the perspective of an artist whose dreams of life and love are darkened by those in whom he sincerely trusted.

Mixed by acclaimed engineer and producer Mark “Spike” Stent, the track features an introspective Lennon, expressing the bitter taste of betrayal, as experienced throughout his life, in love and business. The strength in Lennon’s voice on the updated track communicates his resilience despite such heartbreaks. The intricate musical accompaniment further demonstrates his enduring gift for arrangement.

“The reason I decided to re-release and remix ‘I Should Have Known’ is because it was always a favourite of mine,” says Lennon. “I loved the way the new album [‘Jude’] sounded in particular. (…) I thought maybe Mark ‘Spike’ Stent will remix this for me and give it a new life. I want it to breathe life into the world again.”

Alongside the release, Lennon appears in a music video for the first time in over a decade for an original song, under the direction of Anna Makovchik, capturing his soul’s journey in a calm and peaceful environment. The visual representation reveals the profound essence of “I Should Have Known,” showcasing a poignant journey of self-discovery and emotional growth.

Born in Liverpool, England, Julian Lennon began his artistic trajectory at a young age with an inherent gift for playing musical instruments. Those abilities would soon broaden into the cinematic and visual arts. As an observer of life in all its forms, Julian developed his personal expression through such mediums as music, documentary filmmaking, philanthropy and fine art photography.

Julian’s musical melding of uplifting introspection and thoughtful social commentary with refined hooks has made for a compelling seven-album body of work. His debut, Valotte (Atlantic), yielded two top ten hits—the title track and “Too Late for Goodbyes”—he was also nominated for a Grammy for Best New Artist. He went on to have #1 singles on the U.S. album rock charts. Internationally, one of his most popular songs, “Saltwater” charted successfully around the world, topping in Australia for four weeks and reaching #6 in the U.K. In 2022, he returned with the critically acclaimed album, Jude (BMG), his first commercial release in over a decade.
