Meet & Greet with Andrew McMahon #TNWSC
Awesome posts from Night 1 / Nights We Stole Christmas #TNWSC
Night 1 of the Nights We Stole Christmas was glorious, spectacular, and other praising adjectives that I can not muster at the moment. It felt like every few minutes music-related happiness was being spread on stage, in the crowd, in the line outside, and we got to see a lot of it shared on social media over the past 24 hours. Here is taste of the joy that is stealing the holidays with us.

Great News in the War on Scalping
Starting in February, the state of New York will consider the use of “ticket bots” as a misdemeanor. Which means major fines and possible jail time for any scalpers caught using them. Bots are one of the biggest reasons show you want to buy tickets for will sell out in seconds and give you virtually no chance of actually getting a ticket without going through the secondary market.
Consequence of Sound has more on this HERE.
COS also did this documentary that digs into the whole scalping world and shows you how it really works. And explains exactly what a “bot” is, too.
