      E-Commerce

      In den USA formiert sich ein neuer Wettbewerber für den Online-Verkauf von Konzerttickets: Das US-Schnäppchenportal Groupon und der Konzertveranstalter Live Nation bündeln ihre Kräfte und richten einen neuen Anbieter ein, wie beide Firmen mitteilten. Das neue Portal soll Grou- ponLive heißen und zum Beginn der Saison für Sommerkonzerte an den Start gehen. Wie bei Groupon sollen die Kunden bei GrouponLive auch Tickets für Konzerte, Theater oder andere Events mit erheblichen Preisra- batten ergattern können. Finanzielle Details wurden nicht genannt.

      Live Nation to Offer Flexible Ticket Pricing Based on Demand
      By Andy Fixmer - Apr 18, 2011 10:39 PM GMT+0200


      Live Nation Entertainment Inc. (LYV)’s Ticketmaster division said it will begin pricing events based on consumer demand in a drive to take revenue from resellers and boost overall sales.

      Clients including sports teams, music acts and promoters will be able to adjust ticket prices based on how well the event is selling, according to a statement today from Beverly Hills, California-based Live Nation. The world’s biggest concert- promoter and ticketing company is partnering with Los Angeles- based MarketShare to provide the so-called dynamic pricing.

      The system lets venue owners target the markups that brokers charge for top events and sell more tickets for less- popular acts. Dynamic pricing will reduce scalping, freeing-up more tickets for consumers, the company said.

      “The ultimate goal is to have the right ticket at the right price for the fan,” Nathan Hubbard, chief executive officer of Ticketmaster, said in an interview. “We want to open up new more affordable options to get people out to the show.”

      Hubbard said 40 percent of Ticketmaster’s inventory goes unsold. The pricing system is being tested with some sports teams, and should become more widely applied in the next several months, Hubbard said.

      Live Nation fell 14 cents, or 1.4 percent, to $9.73 at 4 p.m. in New York Stock Exchange composite trading. The shares have declined 15 percent this year.

      Lady Gaga, Giants

      The price and quantity of tickets to sports teams including the San Francisco Giants at online reseller Stubhub.com hasn’t changed since those clubs began using dynamic pricing, Glenn Lehrman, a spokesman for the EBay Inc.-owned website, said in an interview. So far teams have been unwilling to lower prices below what season-ticket holders pay, he said.

      “It’s more like variable pricing,” Lehrman said. “They keep moving the price up but they never drop it. If they still have tickets right before the show, I doubt we’ll see those suddenly drop to $1 or $2.”

      High profile events such as Lady Gaga concerts still garner premiums, Lehrman said. For prices to drop, promoters must hold fewer tickets for special customers, he said.

      “It’s more a supply issue than a price issue,” Lehrman said. “With all the holdbacks on tickets, it’s impossible to know how many are being made available. That is what drives ticket prices up.”

      Elevation Investment

      Live Nation said the new pricing system will be part of Ticketmaster’s LiveAnalytics division, which uses the parent company’s consumer data to help clients including venue owners boost ticket sales.

      “It will lower arbitrage opportunity and make it less likely tickets get snapped up because they’re being sold below their market value,” Hubbard said. “Most scalpers buy those tickets and make huge spreads and a big business out of that.”

      MarketShare’s forecasting models are used by Hollywood studios and video-game companies, Live Nation said. Elevation Partners, a Menlo Park, California-based private equity firm co- founded by U2 lead singer Bono, invested $32 million in the closely held company, according to an April 14 MarketShare statement. Elevation took a minority position in February 2009.

      Live Nation bidding for Warner Music
      NEW YORK - CONCERT promoter and ticketing company Live Nation Entertainment Inc is in the running to buy the recorded music assets of Warner Music Group Corp, the world's third largest music company, according to a person familiar with the talks.

      Warner Music effectively put itself up for sale in January when it hired Goldman Sachs Group Inc and AGM Partners to explore strategic options after it was approached about selling its assets.

      Bids have come in valuing the whole company around US$3 billion (S$3.7 billion) on an enterprise value basis, which includes both debt and equity. Bids for its Warner/Chappell song publishing unit have come in at around US$1.5 billion to US$2 billion.

      Other bidders so far include Platinum Equity, billionaire Mr Ron Burkle's Yucaipa Co, billionaire Mr Len Blavatnik and Sony Corp, which is specifically interested in the song publishing unit, sources familiar with the process have said.

      Warner Music is home to acts including Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bruno Mars and Green Day.

      Live Nation said in 2007 that it would reinvent the music business by doing away with the need to follow the traditional recorded music label model. Through 2007 to 2008 it signed major music stars such as Madonna and rapper Jay-Z to multi-million dollar, multi-year deals that included touring, merchandise and recorded music rights. But to execute that strategy it still needed to partner with major music labels to distribute the music. Jay-Z's last album, released through Live Nation, ended up being marketed and distributed through a partnership with Warner Music. -- REUTERS

      LOS ANGELES, Feb. 4, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. today announced that Ticketmaster, the Company's ticketing division, has entered into an agreement to acquire ServiCaixa, the largest ticket retailer in Spain from "la Caixa", the leading Spanish savings bank and financial services group. The transaction, which is subject to Spanish antitrust approval, will create the leading ticketing company in Spain through the combination of Ticketmaster Spain, formerly known as TickTackTicket, and ServiCaixa, legally named Serviticket SA.

      By joining these two complementary ticketing companies, Ticketmaster will provide the foremost ticketing services across Spain and the wider Iberian peninsula for all genres, including cinema, music, sports, performing arts, museums and attractions.

      As part of the transaction, Ticketmaster will enter into a multi-year marketing and ticket distribution partnership with "la Caixa", which will allow Ticketmaster to offer tickets through the bank's 8,100 ATM's located across Spain. The new Ticketmaster Spain will provide expanded service to existing "la Caixa" customers by offering a greater diversity of ticket inventory through multiple distribution channels, including online, shopping outlet and "la Caixa" ATM's.

      "Expanding internationally in attractive markets where we can replicate our integrated model and grow profitably represents one of our key growth initiatives," said Michael Rapino, President and CEO of Live Nation. "This acquisition and our recent expansion in France put us on track in executing our plan and further strengthen Ticketmaster as the world's leading ticketing company."

      "Through this transaction, we will significantly enhance our distribution footprint and growth potential in Spain," said Alan Ridgeway, CEO of Live Nation International. "In particular, this combined range of assets will now enable us to grow our presence in the online advertising and sponsorship markets."

      "We are very pleased to have a multi-year agreement with the world's leading ticketing company," said Benjami Puigdevall Esteve, Managing Director of e-la Caixa. "We believe that the new Ticketmaster Spain will provide la Caixa with continued access to a broad range of ticketing services and cross-promotion opportunities for the benefit of la Caixa and its customers."

      By Kit R. Roane, contributorAugust 27, 2010: 5:52 AM ET


      FORTUNE -- For a promotion and entertainment company, Live Nation has had a tough time doing either with much success. Instead, over the last year, it's been battered by regulators, goaded by class action lawyers, sued by rock stars, virtually ignored by analysts, and despised by fans fed up with paying for hidden fees in tickets, only to fork over even more for overpriced T-shirts and beer. Worse still, Live Nation (LYV, Fortune 500) still can't seem to make any money, reporting both unexpectedly large losses and revenue declines earlier this month.

      Its stock continues to drown in the shallowest pool. And its management acknowledges plenty more challenges ahead, noting that the second half of the year could bring another 15% swoon in concert attendance on top of the 12% decline the industry has already had. So it is somewhat startling that a few well-heeled investors and hedge funds have kept to their bets on a turnaround.

      Although Greenlight Capital's David Einhorn threw in the towel on Live Nation in April, John Malone's Liberty Media is sticking with it. Others have joined in as well. This August, Farallon Capital Management disclosed it had picked up 900,100 shares of the company, and small-cap value investors at Shapiro Capital, while no fan of Live Nation's successful merger with Ticketmaster earlier this year, continue to hold nearly 8 million shares. Tiger Global Management controls 11.2 million shares, and Stephen Mandel's Lone Pine Capital has bought about 9.6 million shares.

      It's unclear what these investors see that others don't, although perhaps Live Nation's stock -- which trades at less than a quarter of the price of an average Live Nation concert ticket -- might seem just too cheap to pass up. Corsair Capital Management, another fund that has raised its stake in the ticketing and promotion behemoth, recently opined in an investment letter that Live Nation might finally have its "secular tailwinds at its back," and that it was now trading at an "attractive price for an oligopolistic business with modest capital requirements."

      However, a bet on Live Nation is in many ways a bet on its ability to execute on a planned expansion overseas. As Live Nation has noted, the North American market is generally unappealing these days. American fans aren't willing to pay what they once did to see many of their favorite acts, there are not a lot of great new venues to tap, and the talent demands an ever-larger cut of the concert pie. "Jay Z doesn't care if he plays in Paris or Denver, but we do," explained Live Nation CEO Michael Rapino during the company's uneven investor day pitch last month. "We make more money in Paris."
      0:00 /3:59MTV founder: Music videos survive

      That is why Live Nation plans to shift its focus to what Rapino describes as "less sophisticated" markets, with the idea of expanding into around 75 live-performance markets overseas. The concert market there is certainly in better shape than the one here at home. Pollstar, which tracks the concert industry, recently reported that top concerts in South America, Australia and Europe continued to gross about what they did last year, about 15% more than they did in the U.S.

      Cheaper artists + expensive tickets = international success?

      According to Live Nation's own data, there is easy money to be made overseas. Fans there are willing to pay about $4 more on average for a ticket than fans in the United States and the artists toiling on stage, on average, are willing to work for at least 19% less of the take.

      "It is an open world now. This market is on fire on a global basis," said Rapino, adding that Latin America was also hot and that Live Nation was in Dubai "every day of the week...talking to somebody about a deal."

      But, in his excitement, Live Nation's CEO may not be taking into account that the markets targeted are already being serviced by other large and successful concert promoters and ticket sellers. And those competitors have largely avoided the public relations baggage that has hit Live Nation from a myriad of issues, including cancelled concerts, angry fans, investigations of anti-competitive maneuvers and allegations of unlawful profits.

      There may be, as Rapino believes, more than 124 million tickets to be sold in places like France, Australia, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany and Spain. But even in countries where Live Nation had years of experience, inroads have been difficult, with Live Nation data showing only about 3% penetration in Spain after a good four years of trying. And so far this year, it's performed worse in overseas markets than it has in the U.S. by some measures. While Live Nation ticket revenue was almost flat in the U.S., it was down about 12% overseas.

      That's not all. Live Nation has sold fewer tickets internationally so far this year (9.7 million compared with 12.9 million in 2009) even as competitors such as US-based AEG-Live, Germany's Marek Lieberberg, South Africa's T4F, and the UK-s 3A all reported strong gains, according to Pollstar. The concert industry publication's data also showed AEG Live-affiliated companies produced 46 of the top 100 grossing concerts, compared to Live Nation's mere 27.

      If Live Nation can't make inroads overseas, it will have to play especially nice with fans back at home to rebuild its tarnished image. Already, in an attempt to fill empty arenas, Live Nation has begun to discount more tickets and pitch others as 'free of service fees.' It has also moved to reduce or do away with some fees (such as the absurd payment for printing a ticket at home), tried to make it easier for customers to get the seats they want, and worked to fortify its customer "bill of rights."

      Rapino says that Live Nation needs to begin treating consumers with the respect they are due. But the sense one gets from hearing Live Nation's management talk during its investors conference is that they still often see their customers as little more than stacks of money ready to slice and dice.

      Live Nation doesn't believe it should have to reduce what it takes in at a concert to appease fans and fill arenas. Instead, it can force the artist to take the hit, and then dynamically price the tickets so that the front rows pay even more, helping to offset any loss inflicted by the cheapskates that wait around for $10 seats at the rear. The artist's share might suffer, but Live Nation, it seems, can never lose.

      Like the egotistical, often childish and un-repentant Rock & Roll artists its management arm sometimes represents, Live Nation doesn't take full ownership of its problem, one highlighted by Pollstar editor Gary Bongiovanni when he wrote that the concert industry was, in a sense, killing itself. Fans still want to see live music, he said, despite "piggish, top-tier prices," "add-on fees," the availability of "discounted tickets after they have paid full price" and other "misguided efforts to squeeze the fun out of the experience."

      Live Nation sees such maneuvers as part of its salvation, while blaming a moribund economy, a yellow press, greedy touring artists and half-witted investors for much of the company's malaise.

      "From the tone of the questions, I don't think you guys out there really get the message that we are trying to do today," snapped Live Nation Chairman Irving Azoff at one point during the company's investor conference, adding that a few pointed questions about the company's financial difficulties, litigation risk and international rollout made him think that "maybe we've got a bunch of short term investors that need to think longer term."

      Given Live Nation's recent history and performance, and its difficulty in articulating how it will reach its goals for the future, some investors and fans might think Live Nation should do the same. To top of page
