It has nothing to do with scalping and everything to do with no one buying a ticket. If you are going to tell a lie, tell a big one.
You may be right - but my point was on scalping per se - and not about Cat Yusef specifically.
I was curious so I just checked on StubHub for resale tickets. Cheapest Cat Stevens Chicago concert ticket $938 — cheapest Boston ticket $3,167. Wow!
