RHCP 'Free' Tickets are Being Sold
April 23, 2005 11:04:33About 35,000 free tickets for Red Hot Chili Peppers and Weezer concert; scheduled July 2 in a parking lot near the Las Vegas Convention Center; made available online through a ticket service on Monday by Event promoter Clear Channel Entertainment Properties, have been sold by traders through eBay auctions at prices that by Thursday ranged from $25 and $70 per ticket.
This incident, obviously, makes the officials become so furious because they indicate that there are people who want to take advantage of the situation. To note, those tickets are actually available to everybody for free because the centennial committee want to present the show, which is to mark the city's 100th anniversary, as a very special event.
