Wow, that's whack!
I love the "other processing"
They might as well just be honest and say "you're a sucker and getting screwed charge"
or "we think your feet smell, add $5.00"

So are you going?

yes! i am going. i am quite excited, have always needed to see ira glass for real.
the very worst thing is that the $10.55 charge is PER TICKET.
jerks.

I think it has more to do with the venue than the artist. Sometimes the artists (due to contracts or whatever) have to use whatever venue is assigned. For TAL Live, I imagine that WBEZ probably is involved in the scheduling.

I used Ticketmaster once, and had the same shitty experience. Never again, I swear...they're a racket.

Sweet! That's where they're living these days while they make the TV show, should be good! You'll have to report back.
I'm jealous about your avoidance of ticketmaster. Hopefully the whole world will come around to such a point of view. I should start writing nasty letters.
