Josh Baron and Dean Budnick spent three years speaking to hundreds of industry veterans to research the history of modern ticketing. Their book, "Ticket Masters: The Rise of the Concert Industry and How the Public Got Scalped", is being hailed as the most comprehensive work on the subject. In this interview they explain the real culprit behind today’s high ticket prices and provide a few ways to get the best seats in the house.

I once stayed on line for three days (the front of the line, I should add) to see Bruce Springsteen in the Orange Bowl. I ended up with sixth row center and the stage jutted out four rows so there was only one person in front of me. That would never happen today and our guests explain how and why the concert industry has changed and what you can do to combat high prices.
