Ticket Company Drops Extra Charges On Eagles Tour Dates

A ticket company has bowed to pressure from music fans and removed extra charges on tickets for January shows by the Eagles.

Ticketmaster will reduce “convenience” fees and waive package and postage costs for customers who print their tickets at home using their TicketFast service.

The company will also drop the fees on select dates on the remainder of the band's winter tour, a statement said.

The announcement follows the appointment of Irving Azoff, the Eagles' manager, as the new chief executive of Ticketmaster.
