NORMAL LIFE: The Girl From Down Under Doing The Right Thing!

Most artists wouldn't bother to kick up a fuss, but oh-so-decent Kylie has once again hit back at online autioners, Ebay, for buying tickets for her upcoming Showgirl Homecoming Tour and then auctioning them online for up to five times more than the face value.

Apparently, Promoter Harvey Goldsmith backed Kylie claming that "eBay are an absolute disgrace. They have no right to be doing what they are doing. They are a thorn in the side of the industry. Every time we do a show we have to track eBay down, we have to find the seats and we cancel them. We will continue to do so. It is doing them a disservice, the public a disservice and it is doing the artists a disservice."

Kylie’s action is a major boost in the war on touts who are making the lives of honest young gig-goers a misery by pricing them out of the market. After all, aren't concerts expensive enough to go to? I wonder if Madonna, that capitalist bitch who just renacted the Crucifixion (read about that here) at one of her concert dates in Rome (god, will that woman ever grow up?!), would ever have the decency to serve her fans in this way?
