The U.S. Department of Justice approved the Live Nation and Ticketmaster merge on Monday, according to rollingstone.com. The joining of the two biggest pieces in the $4.4 billion (U.S.) worldwide concert business is sure to affect every live-music fan, artist, agent, manager, and promoter.
In a statement, Ticketmaster’s chief executive, Eagles manager Irving Azoff, called the decision “a great win for fans,” but some people in the business fear the combined power of the two companies will make it hard for outsiders to promote and sell tickets.
“It’s disappointing to me,” said Buck Williams, who represents R.E.M. and Widespread Panic. “It’s just another step in eliminating competition.”
“They’ve pulled the rug out from under the entrepreneurs, to some degree,” he added.
The new Live Nation Entertainment, which will begin its merge as early as tomorrow (Wednesday), will own a large chunk of the business: Ticketmaster’s Front Line management company represents the Eagles, Jimmy Buffett, Christina Aguilera and many others, while Live Nation’s clients include Madonna and Jay-Z. Ticketmaster has exclusive ticketing deals with most of the major U.S. arenas, while Live Nation owns and operates 140 top venues overall, including most of the ampitheatres. And Ticketmaster alone sells about 140 million tickets a year.
These combined assets make some people in the business optimistic. “My hope and belief is that there is going to be an expanded opportunity for touring artists to [experiment with] a variety of different products,” said Jim Guerinot, manager of the likes of No Doubt and Nine Inch Nails. “And I look forward to trying those things.”
Azoff and Live Nation’s CEO, Michael Rapino, said that the new Live Nation Entertainment would have the power and flexibility to make more money, cut costs, and ultimately reduce ticket prices and service fees. The Justice Department mostly agreed, but before approving the merger, U.S. attorneys forced Ticketmaster to license its software to top competitor AEG Live and forbade the combined company from retaliating against any concert venue that uses a non-Ticketmaster outlet.
The agreement “promotes robust competition for primary ticketing services and preserves incentives for competitors to innovate and discount, which will benefit consumers,” said Christine Varney, an assistant attorney in the Justice Department’s antitrust division, in a statement.
Some artist representatives are still skeptical. “I don’t think prices are going to come down,” said Tom Windish, an agent who represents Animal Collective, Hot Chip, and dozens of other top indie artists. “I don’t think it’s going to change that much. I don’t see Live Nation getting less money, I don’t see artists getting less money and I don’t see Ticketmaster charging a surcharge that’s lower than [what] they can possibly get. If anything, it’ll be higher.”
