One Clear Dot

One cool thing about the world we have created using the internet is the ability for people to connect when they want to buy or sell event tickets. It used to be that you bought your tickets from the venue or a ticket retailer and if you wanted to buy them on the secondary market, you sought out a scalper or looked at the classified section of your local paper. It could be a cumbersome task. Sports tickets would often create the biggest frenzy, especially as one team or another would ride a wave of victories.

Now there are web sites entirely dedicated to the exchange of concert, sports, and theatre tickets. viagogo is an online venue that connects people who want to buy and sell tickets and in a controlled and safe environment. Take, for example, the Bon Jovi tour. Due to massive crossover appeal. Bon Jovi is still amazingly popular worldwide and concert tickets for the tour are hot items at just about every stop on the itinerary this coming June: Barcelona, Amsterdam, Glasgow, Southampton, Manchester, Conventry, Bristol, and multiple dates in London.

If you find you’ve missed your chance to pick up great seats to one of the shows, you can simply log onto viagogo and see who is selling passes to the city and date you’re looking for, even if the date is sold out and things seem impossible. It sure beats standing outside the concert on the night of the event begging people to sell you their extra seats.
