Ticketmaster has repeatedly allowed bots and scammers to take tickets away from the loyal fans of artists like KidRock. I am leading a hearing right now to demand answers from Live Nation on why they are putting scammers before consumers.

Ticketmaster has failed to provide transparency and fairness despite many chances to resolve issues with bots and scammers. It’s because they would lose resale revenue, and it’s why Republicans and the Trump administration are demanding accountability.

Live Nation took no accountability for refusing to protect consumers. According to the FTC it was company policy to turn a blind eye to brokers and bad actors buying up tickets while fans suffered the consequences. I pushed for real accountability to protect artists and fans.

Investigation finds it was Barack Obama who allowed Ticketmaster and Live Nation to merge, become a monopoly and destroy the music industry After the merge, Live Nation CEO Michael Rapino earned $70.6 million in 2017, one of the largest CEO pay packages ever recorded “Ticketmaster and Live Nation can basically do whatever they want because they have seized control over every aspect of the live music industry by creating a monopoly. This ticketing cartel has the power to destroy venues and artists who refuse to work with them even have their own resale platform and they encourage and incentivize ticket resellers to gouge fans” This show our politicians actually work together to protect monopolies instead of stop them

Musician Kid Rock, legally known as Robert Ritchie, testified on Capitol Hill Wednesday over his concerns about the resale ticket market pricing consumers out of live events such as concerts. "We can't get the tickets into the hands of the fans at the prices we set," he told CBS News' Nikole Killion. "They need to enforce the Bots Act, but I don't know if that fixes it. It's a great step, and the bots need to go, period." Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) led the hearing before the U.S. Senate Commerce Committee advocating for more enforcement of the Bots Act. "We need Ticketmaster to clean up their website," she said.

You shouldn’t have to pay a small fortune to see your favorite artist in concert. Instead of giving consumers the relief they deserve, this Administration settled the Live Nation/Ticketmaster case. Fans deserve better—and I’ll keep fighting for real competition.

Some individuals are using automated bots to process tickets at high speed 🎟 These bots allegedly help users secure tickets unfairly and resell them for profit, putting genuine fans at a disadvantage and causing major disruptions in the digital queue Do not buy from these sellers, don’t contribute to the problem 🚫

A statement from the Managing Director of Live Nation Malaysia, Mr. Para Rajagopal, regarding this issue has been noted. However, with all due respect, your statement does not address the main concerns raised by the fans of BTS (ARMYs). Instead of merely advising fans not to purchase tickets from scalpers, the priority right now should be transparency and accountability. We demand a clear clarification on whether the allegations made by the self-proclaimed influencer are true or false. If the allegations are false, we urge Live Nation Malaysia to release an official statement through your verified account and take legal action against the individual for defaming and damaging the reputation of your company. If the allegations are true — that staff members were involved in selling or distributing tickets through unauthorized “backdoor” channels — then we expect a thorough internal investigation to be conducted immediately, and those responsible must be held accountable under the law. We understand that scalping and ticket scams are not new issues. They happen at concerts and events worldwide. However, this situation has gained serious attention because it was exposed publicly, involving a fandom that will not remain silent when their rights as consumers are being compromised. We will continue to demand transparency, fairness, and justice for all affected fans. #RespectMalaysianARMY #LiveNationMYExplainNow #GoLiveExplainNow #RespectBTSARMY #BTSinKL
