So, I guess Live Nation changed their No TIcket fee Wednesday to No Full Price Wednesday. Either way, this latest deal -- which is the same offer as last week -- seems like a keeper. It's basically buy one ticket, get one free, and it applies to Hersheypark Stadium shows. The offer lasts all day today. Check back next Wednesday for the next deal and check Popeye next Thursday to get a breakdown of summer ticket deals. (Photo: Live Nation)

It's No Fee Wednesday again. This time, Live Nation is offering half off pairs of lawn tickets. That's confusing. Why don't they just call it what it is: Buy one, get one free? This offer runs through midnight and is valid for some shows at Hersheypark Stadium this time. (Photo: Live Nation)

It's No Service Fee Wednesday agian. Live Nation's offering $29.99 lawn tickets and $49.99 reserved tickets with hot dogs and sodas. The offer lasts until midnight. Again, it seems like the discount is only valid at some venues. Also, the concert promoter listed the top current tours. I hope they're in no particular order.
Top 10 Tours:
Aerosmith
Blink-182
Brad Paisley
Coldplay
Def Leppard
Depeche Mode
Jonas Brothers
Paul McCartney
Rascal Flatts
The Fray

No Service Fee Wednesdays continue today. This time around Live Nation offers lawn tickets, a hot dog and soda for $29.99. The offer lasts until midnight. What'll they throw in next? The kitchen sink?

The promotion doesn't seem to be valid at all shows and all venues. Why isn't Hersheypark Stadium on the list? I'm still confused/not sure if this is a "good deal." I don't think I'd see a Creed show or eat a hot dog, even for free. (Photo: Live Nation)

When Live Nation ran it's No Service Fee Wednesday June 10, fans could buy any ticket for any Live Nation amphitheater without service charges, which sometimes add up to $12.

Live Nation extends its No Service Fee Wednesday with discounts on four- and six-pack ticket packages. The offer, which is valid for all four- and six-packs at Live Nation amphitheaters, runs for 24 hours beginning at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday at LiveNation.com. Music fans will recive up to a 54 percent discount on regular admission price. Parking and other fees might still apply. Check the jump for a concert list and more Live Nation news.

After jacking up ridiculous and unexplained service fees Live Nation threw summer concert-goers a bone by offering "No Service Fee Wednesday" (or so it seemed).

On the first day of the promotion (June 3) more than 5 million lawn tickets were offered without service charges. However, fans still had to pay a $6 parking fee and in some cases facility and charity fees.

Live Nation runs its "No Service Fee Wednesday" again June 10. This time, fans can buy any ticket for any Live Nation amphitheater free of service charges. But parking, various venue fees and taxes may still apply. The offer is only valid at Live Nation venues, including Hersheypark Stadium. I wonder how much that actually saves?

You read this blog post and watched the video of Manchester Township native Elisabeth Ketterman singing with Bruce Springsteen.

Now read the follow-up story. The Kettermans almost saw the Springsteen show at Giants Stadium instead of State College, but they ran into trouble purchasing tickets online with TicketMaster.

Have you ever had a bad experience with TicketMaster/ LiveNation? I wonder what will happen when these two companies merge.

I heart Coldplay and was blown away by their latest album. I haven't seen them live since 2003, so I decided it was time to get to one of their concerts.

I was stoked to get tickets for their May 21 show at the Nissan Pavilion in Bristow, Va. Lawn seats were $35, which seemed reasonable for one of the biggest rock acts around. I was expecting a $6 or $7 processing fee, but I forgot that Nissan Pavilion came under the control of the evil live events empire of Live Nation.

I was shocked that the ticket came to $55. The only reason I'm still going to the show is because Pete Yorn is the opener. (The chance to see two of my favorite artists together took away some of the sting.) Read the cost breakdown in the rest of this post.
