If you don't want to pay the price for something entertainment based, then don't. Simplez.
are the performers really the ones banking on reselling tickets by all these companies? i'd imagine no matter how high these phoney reseller companies mark up the prices the musicians still get the same no matter if its sold at base price or rip off retard price.

i used to buy tickets and resell them for a while. i could usually double my money but it got to be a bit of a pain in the ass and not worth the hassle. once i got some 4th row ac/dc tickets and sold them for triple the price. i foolishly thought the venue would be GA, not seated so i didn't see the need to keep those tickets when i had so many others. stupid stupid mistake as it was seated.

i don't mind paying "high" prices for concert tickets as long as its actually the musicians benefiting and not some random useless company who has deals with ticketmaster to hold back tickets. thats just bullshit.
