0:06
for a chance Beyonce tickets
0:08
and hoping it will cost less

than the comes after
0:10
Ticketmaster fell under
0:12
federal tough scrutiny for
0:14
problems. Number of Taylor

Live in Harlem. A look at what
0:18
they're going to do
0:19
differently. Heather, J.
0:24
>> Hi, and Kori. You know, we
0:24
had a hard time to be honest
0:27
finding Beyonce fans here 100
0:28
25th Street who thought they
0:29
had a fair shot at getting
0:33
tickets to one of these
0:34
Beyonce concert in our area
0:35
later this summer. Still,
0:37
Ticketmaster says it's doing
0:38
everything it needs to do to
0:41
make that It's easy to imagine
0:43
millions of Beyonce fans
0:45
across the country logging
0:46
into their Ticketmaster online
0:47
accounts this week and
0:48
thinking. A declaration of
0:53
sorts made by weary concert
0:54
goers who wonder if the
0:55
company has truly learned its
0:57
lesson.
0:58
>> After a botched Taylor
0:59
Swift concert ticket rollout
1:00
outraged the Swifties. So as
1:02
one Beyonce fan tweeted,
1:06
Ticketmaster better get it
1:06
together because the Beehive
1:07
does not play at all. who we
1:11
met Thursday night in Harlem
1:13
says there's just too much
1:14
money at stake. I believe
1:18
learned a lesson came because
1:19
they didn't with the bottom
1:19
line.
1:22
>> it for Beyonce's upcoming
1:24
Renaissance World Floor
1:25
Ticketmaster announced there
1:26
will be staggered ticket sales
1:29
utilizing its verified fan
1:31
technology to avoid butts and
1:32
issuing access codes to
1:33
purchase tickets by lottery
1:36
registration. Time. Windows
1:37
will vary by location.
1:39
Attorney David Schwartz says
1:40
even after Ticketmaster's
1:42
recent congressional
1:44
testimony, it's unclear
1:45
whether these new measures
1:46
will result in easier access
1:49
to concert tickets. You've got
1:51
such a volume of people
1:54
controlled by one company in
1:55
how much they pay for their
1:56
ticket prices. It's one thing.
2:01
>> We're ticket prices may too
2:02
high on tertiary markets.
2:04
>> But when it's so high on
2:06
the market coming out of the
2:08
first party like Ticketmaster
2:11
is that's a major problem.
2:12
This mom says she hopes this
2:14
time around that ticket prices
2:15
are more accessible and
2:20
affordable. that fallen to you
2:21
have to be a multi-millionaire
2:22
to be able to go to Dubai.
2:24
Know I can't even should be
2:26
able my child to be able to
2:30
and artists who have it is not
2:31
the only be on Sunday should
2:32
be able to see in August that
2:33
had enough for flies.
2:39
>> Kori and tamsan, you know,
2:40
out of one of the blamed at
2:41
home or out here on the street
2:43
for handing out a Roni U.S.
2:46
information about this tour.
2:48
So I'm going to recommend
2:49
everyone go straight to the
2:50
Ticketmaster website to get
2:51
their updates. I did that. And
2:54
Ticketmaster just a short
2:55
while ago posted a demand
2:57
update. I'm going to read it
2:58
verbatim. So mess it up. It
3:01
says fandom and already
3:02
exceeds the number of tickets
3:05
available by more than 800%.
3:08
Good luck, everybody. We're
3:09
live in Harlem tonight. Jay
