Reply to comment by havereddit in ELI5: Everyone knows that Ticketmaster is the biggest scumbucket enterprise on the planet yet no band seems able to avoid their grasp. What's to stop a really major act (e.g. Taylor Swift) from performing in venues that are not controlled by Ticketmaster, or just setting up a parallel company? by havereddit
You would have to privately negotiate each and every venue as well as organizing permits etc. Sign the line with Ticketmaster and you have a world tour lined up in a week.
