Event Tickets

Is bragging about how long you had to wait in line just to get concert tickets starting to get a bit old?

In a world where the phrase “time is money” means more than ever before, we really don’t have the time to play silly games…

Remember a time, long, long ago, when we actually had to stand in line in order to purchase tickets to watch our favorite bands and artists. How about waking up in totally groggy at the crack of dawn with barley any sleep or even camping out over night at the ticket box offices to secure our places in line. Hours upon hours, through rain, sleet, and snow; trying to convince everyone (especially yourself) how cool it is to be so extreme, only to hear those heartbreaking words “Were all sold out.” Sometimes, it was all for nothing. Like many of you, my once die-hard “do what ever it takes” mentality was crushed by these crazy long lines.

Well, good news. There is  a slight glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel. No longer must we camp out and sleep on sidewalks, withstanding nature’s elements in order to grab the best-ticketed seats in the house. These days, there are many online avenues that make it simple and convenient to buy all the tickets we want without ever leaving the comfort of our homes. Unfortunately, not all of the problems have been eliminated:

How can we be sure the tickets we buy are real or fake?
Many online merchants make money by selling us counterfeit tickets. Real tickets are incased in extremely thin lamination. If the ticket doesn’t have that thin encasement, it’s most likely fake. Also, check the date and time closely. Scalpers love to sell tickets that are past their deadlines.  Take the ticket and look at it. The base color for most US Ticketmaster events is white. It may have orange, green or blue on it, but the main color is white. Hold the ticket up to a light source. All the parts that are white should glow blue. Most reputable ticket selling websites such as Ticketmaster put security measures in place against counterfeiting.

Have the tickets been modified?
If someone is selling us tickets for $25 when similar tickets are being sold for $200, we are being totally scammed. In our rush to make up for our procrastination we often overlook these small details. This happens even more so when we really want to believe in the purchase we just made.

So the ticket we purchased IS real, but we’re still not granted entry at the event. WTF?
If we’re not the original purchaser of the tickets, there is ALWAYS a chance that the ticket may not grant us entry into the venue. IF the original buyer sells tickets to us, then reports them lost or stolen, Ticketmaster will invalidate our tickets and issue new ones which will be held at Will Call in the name of the original purchaser.  What a nightmare! We will protect you agaist this.

So how can we overcome these ticket purchasing pit falls?

I have been in the ticket broker business for over 9 years and have seen it all. In addition to my vast experience in the ticketing industry, I have sought the expert help of some of the top event planners and public relations specialists in the country to bring you the best and most importantly safest ticket deals that I know of.

First Single, “You and Your Heart,” Impacts Radio April 6th; Johnson Announces US Summer Tour; Tickets on Sale April 10th; Johnson to Donate 100% of Tour Profits to Charity!

OAHU, HI – (Marketwire – March 15, 2010) – Hawaiian-born singer-songwriter Jack Johnson will release his new album, entitled “To The Sea,” on June 1st, 2010, on his own label, Brushfire Records. The first single from the album, “You And Your Heart,” will be released to radio in early April.

“To The Sea,” Johnson’s fifth studio release, was co-produced by Johnson, his bandmates bassist Merlo Podlewski, keyboardist Zach Gill, and drummer Adam Topol, and Johnson’s longtime engineer Robert Carranza. “To The Sea” was recorded at Johnson’s two solar-powered studios: The Mango Tree in Hawaii and the Solar Powered Plastic Plant in Los Angeles. Johnson has sold more than 18 million albums worldwide, and over 9 million in the United States alone. His last album, “Sleep Through The Static” debuted at #1 and remained there for 3 weeks.

Johnson, who will embark on a world tour in support of “To The Sea,” has announced dates for his upcoming summer tour in the US, which begins July 9th in Hartford CT and ends on the West Coast with two nights at the Santa Barbara Bowl on October 13th and 14th. Highlights include stops at Madison Square Garden, Jack’s first headline appearance at the Hollywood Bowl, and two nights at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley. Tickets will go on sale to the public on April 10th.

For Johnson’s “To The Sea” tour, his production team, with the support of Reverb and MusicMatters, will continue to pave the way in green touring practices and community engagement. Greening actions include fueling tour vehicles with sustainable biodiesel, offering eco-friendly tour merchandise, and promoting ride share programs. In addition, venues and fans are encouraged to reduce waste, recycle, use water refill stations and offset carbon emissions. Visit www.jackjohnsonmusic.com/greening for all tour greening details.

Johnson’s tour will also collaborate with over 150 hand-chosen community groups around the world as part of Johnson’s All At Once Community. This year’s All At Once campaign will focus on supporting non-profit groups and engaging fans in the realms of plastic waste reduction and sustainable local food systems. As in 2008, Jack Johnson will donate 100% of his tour profits to charity. Visit www.AllAtOnce.org for additional information.
