Google's New Cost-Per-Action Ads Could Open Doors for Smaller Ticket Brokers
Google is apparently testing an on-line advertising model that, while not new, has never been used by the beast of search engines before. The new model would mean advertisers would pay only if a certain action was completed - for example, a newsletter sign-up or a sale.
The change is intended to prevent click fraud, any of a series of actions by which advertisers are charged money for clicks that are made accidentally or with malicious intent. To this point, click fraud prevents many small ticket brokers from actually using Google as an advertising outlet because it quickly costs them too much money and the bill is too unpredictable.
A method whereby a ticket broker can more accurately predict the cost associated with each Google generated ad and guarantee they don't pay unless a sale is made will allow them calculate costs into the price they must charge for a ticket.

Redskins Season Tickets Available
We have just learned that as of yesterday afternoon Redskins season tickets are available for purchase through the Redskins ticket office. The seats are obstructed view, but many believe demand will be just as high this year as it was last year, allowing for the opportunity to get rid of all games.
There is a trick to getting them if you are out of state. Because the Redskins do not want people seeing the seats on opening day and then cancelling because of the obstructed view, they will tell you that you must go to the stadium to see the seats. However, depending on whom you speak to, you may be able to get that requirement waived by offering to fax a letter waiving your right to cancellation.
Even if it is a break even proposition this year, you can work your magic to upgrade next year. And if the 'Skins make the playoffs again and have a home game or two, you're golden.
You can get the Redskins phone number here, check their schedule here, and get an idea of market demand for their tickets here.

Ticketmaster Auctions Get Visual Boost - Bids Prices to Follow?
Though we have not verified this with anyone from Ticketmaster, we can only guess that the recent facelift given to the Ticketmaster on-sale pages - seemingly designed to make the auction pages stand out more - is a result of disappointing bid prices.
For months now, brokers have been picking and choosing well priced premium seat auctions, paying well over the minimum bid price (usually face value of nearby seats), then turning around and flipping them on eBay or Stubhub for an even higher mark-up.
That the actual consumers who use the tickets do not consider this outlet for buying tickets either means they are really clueless about how to get seats on the primary market, or Ticketmaster just isn't doing a very good job of selling their newest product.
While the appearance of the page before the facelift did make it a bit difficult to see the auctions, that may not be the only problem. In a world where people are used to being able to place a bid and try to win an auction, then move on to the next one if they lose, many consumers may be wary of potentially getting worse seats through the ticketmaster auction if they are outbid. Ticketmaster is essentially asking them to commit money to a product of which they cannot be certain of the quality.
Either way, for the time being, there are still a lot of tickets going for UNDER market value through these auctions, so keep your eyes peeled!

On-line Ticket Auction Industry Taking a Blow?
The latest experiment in on-line ticket auctioneering may prove, at least in the early stages, to be unfruitful.
Stubhub's latest experiment - attempting to auction off all 650 tickets to the INXS concert at the Lobero Theatre in Santa Barbara, CA. - is yielding ticket prices that make eBay look high class.
As you can see here, with just three days left, most of the ticket prices are laughable and would barely cover janitor's fees for the show, let alone paying the band.
So, independent and corporate ticket brokers who are nervous about the widespread application of this idea of auctioning off every seat in a show can celebrate now, right?
Well, not quite. At best, we'll have to wait and see if prices take off the day the auctions end. (Most end Tuesday for those of you interested in seeing how it turns out.) Then we will have a better idea of whether the problem is related to the format of the ticket sales or if it is something else.
Imagine if this format had been used for a different band in a different venue - say Cream at Madison Square Garden. A band that people want to see in a venue people love in a city where there is a lot of "entertainment cash" floating around.
Compare that to what Stubhub used to kick off their "All-Auction Ticket" campaign. INXS, a band whose secondary market tickets have lower demand than VCRs, in Santa Barbara, where the Bowl is the only place people want to see shows, on a Wednesday night.
It does not seem to make a whole of sense to test how much people would be willing to pay on an event that few people would go to for free. But it also didn't make much sense for Stubhub to try make money selling tickets without ever buying any - and we all know how well that worked.
Check back Tuesday for the results!
It could be that the idea is just an ill-advised one. However, one has to wonder if it would be more successful given a different band perhaps the market and band chosen are at the

Houston Texans Presale Password
The Houston Texans will have a presale for the following two game packs Wednesday morning at nine.
Battle Red Pack: Kansas City Chiefs (Saturday, August 12, 7 PM) and Tennessee Titans (Sunday, December 10, Noon)
Liberty White Pack: Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Thursday, August 31, 7 PM) and Philadelphia Eagles (Sunday, September 10, Noon)
Deep Steel Blue Pack: Washington Redskins (Sunday, September 24, Noon) and Indianapolis Colts (Sunday, December 24, Noon)
This Houston Texans presale will begin at 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, June 7 and end at 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, June 11.
Houston Texans Presale Password: early
It is expected that the Deep Steel Blue Pack will be the highest demand since it is the only one of the three with two regular season games.
Prices will vary based on locations available. In addition to purchasing tickets on-line, you can also buy them by calling the Texans ticket office at 832-667-2002 and hitting option 2 for sales.
Demand for Texans tickets in general was dampened a bit when they chose Mario Williams with the first pick in the 2006 NFL draft. But that is not to say demand will be low. The Texans have always been in high demand and have never played in front of less than a sellout crowd at home. It makes you wonder what the Oilers were doing wrong!

Eric Clapton Presales
Eric Clapton Presales are coming up, but that is about all we know for sure. Few details have been announced despite the fact that public on-sales for at least three different Eric Clapton concerts are happening on Saturday.
Here is what we know so far.
There will be fan club presale tickets available. The fan club has stated that they will provide tickets only for select cities. No details on this have been confirmed, but based on the format for the European dates, it seems likely that you will receive a unique passcode that can be used on Ticketmaster to purchase a limited number of tickets.
There will most likely be American Express presales for some cities. These presales will require that you use an American Express card to pay for the presale tickets. The presale password for these sales will be AMEX or the 800 number on the back of your card.
Other Eric Clapton Presales. We have received no other information on Eric Clapton presales at this time. We will update this blog as soon as we do though, so to ensure that you get instant access, please subscribe to one of our feeds to the right.
UPDATE: Eric Clapton Presale for Savvis Center
The Savvis Center has published an online order form for presale tickets to the Clapton show at their venue. You can download, print and fax it from this link.
UPDATE:
Eric Clapton fan club presales happened at the same time as the public on sale for the first couple of shows. The presales indeed went on through ticketmaster.com and each presale code entitles you to two tickets for the entire tour. Today, Amex will sponsor a presale for the Madison Square Garden shows with the fan club and public sales coming later this week. Good luck.

Red Hot Chili Peppers Add LA Forum show Nix Tix Delivery
The Red Hot Chili Peppers announced today that they would be having a fan club presale for the newly unveiled LA Forum show on this coming Wednesday May 31. They also announced that to get the tickets from them, you are going to have to prove you bought them. The RCHP fan club will indeed no longer ship tickets to buyers, but set them aside to be picked up the night of the show only.
Here is the text of the message from the Chili Peppers:
...Fan Club members: We are changing the way fan club presale tickets are delivered. Beginning with this presale (ie. from May 31st onwards), Red Hot Chili Fan Club members will be required to pick up their tickets from a special fan club will-call window. Tickets will only be released to members who can show an ID AND the credit card that matches their ticket purchase information...
This will likely mean higher quality tickets for those that live locally as out of state brokers will be eliminated from the mix. Good luck to all.

Mariah Carey Fan Club Presales Explained
The Mariah Fan Club presales are now explained on MariahCarey.com. There are two types of memberships. One is called a legacy membership and consists of people who joined before May 18 of 2006. These legacy members will receive presale access starting at 10 a.m. local time for all fan club presales.
Regular members joining after May 18 will be able to access all remaining presale tickets at noon on the same day using their unique password, or presumably, by signing up for a new fan club membership.

Mariah Carey Presale Tickets
Mariah Carey tickets for her upcoming tour will go on sale starting today. There is an Amex presale for her Madison Square Garden show today at 9 a.m. Amex presales for other venues, including the Mohegan Sun Casino, Turning Stone Casino, Continental Airlines Arena, TD Banknorth Garden and the United Center in Chicago will start at 10 a.m. local time at the same time as the fan club presales start.
The Mariah Carey fan club is still accepting new members at mariahcarey.com. Though the website does not explicit state this, it is possible that new members joining after May 18 will not receive presale ticket access.
If you have not joined yet, there is hope though. Ticketmaster has listed an event called the "Mariah Carey Fan Club Membership" which may mean you will be able to join as you buy presale tickets. That page is listed here: http://www.ticketmaster.com/artist/1035224 but you may just want to go to the normal Mariah Carey ticket onsale page at sale time to see if there is an option for joining as you buy.
Good luck.

American Idols Presale Password Update
The American Idols presale password for today will be CRAZYGOOD. AMERICAN will be used later in the week.
American Idols Presales Begin Wednesday
It has been a pretty slow week in ticketing thus far, but things will heat up a bit tomorrow. The American Idols presales will begin at 10 a.m. local time for most cities on their new tour. Artists that started out as American Idols then moved on to become some of the hottest names in ticketing include Clay Aiken, Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson.
Here's your chance to catch the next rising star and the next hot ticket during a ticket presale. The presales will be password protected. At this point it looks like the presale password for all cities will be the same: AMERICAN. This password has been used in previous years as well, so there is a good chance other old passwords may also work. These have included POPTART and IDOL.

If you are not a season ticket holder, you can wait for Opt-in presale at noon EST or the public sale at 2. There is a good chance tickets will be sold out through the Season Ticket Holder sale, but tickets were available below face value for round 1 games on Stubhub. That might be a better option!
