You can't get on-and the concert is sold out in six minutes. What happened? What now?
Music journalists Dean Budnick and Josh Baron chronicle the behind-the-scenes history of the modern concert industry. Filled with entertaining rock-and-roll anecdotes about The Rolling Stones, The Grateful Dead, Pearl Jam, and more-and charting the emergence of players like Ticketmaster, StubHub, Live Nation, and Outbox-Ticket Masters will transfix every concertgoer who wonders just where the price of admission really goes.
