Billie Eilish, Lorde and Green Day sign open letter petitioning for bill to protect fans from ticket scams

Billie Eilish, Lorde and Green Day are among the signees of an open letter calling for a bill to be passed to protect gig goers from ticket scams.Over 280 musicians have signed the letter, which encourages lawmakers to implement the Fans First Act to prevent ticketing scams and people reselling tickets at massively inflated prices.Other big-name signees include Fall Out Boy, Duran Duran, Finneas, Graham Nash, Nile Rodgers, Chappell Roan, Cyndi Lauper and Sia.“We are joining together to say that the current system is broken: predatory resellers and secondary platforms engage in deceptive ticketing practices to inflate ticket prices and deprive fans of the chance to see their favorite artists at a fair price,” the letter reads.“As artists and members of the music community, we rely on touring for our livelihood, and we value music fans above all else.“We are joining together to say that the current system is broken; predatory resellers and secondary platforms engage in deceptive ticketing practices to inflate ticket prices and deprive fans of the chance to see their favourite artists at a fair price.They conclude: “Predatory resellers should not be more profitable than the people dedicating their lives to their art.”The Fans First Act was was introduced by a bipartisan group of senators last December. It was referred to and remains before the committee, which would need to approve it so it can be voted on.
