No. And sometimes you have to be careful with Goldstar. Sometimes the discount is no discount at all for very sh*ty seats. And sometimes it is really good.
What a rip off. They even cross out the prices to make it look like it might be discounted.. If your going to pay these prices you might as well buy directly from the source and get better seats.
Ticket givaways on local radio stations is pretty common, even for major headliners. Here in Boston, stations are always having call-in contests for heavy-hitters like Springsteen, Billy Joel, etc., sometimes giving pairs of tickets away a few times a day over the course of a week (though I haven't heard of any Babs contests yet).
I suspect all arenas will be full. I am sure it has sold well enough and they will do whatever they do to fill seats. Last time around Bette Midlers concert donated seats to Aids Project LA and some environmental charity. Babs people will do the same. You will have a fun full crowd.

Probably because it's a template. For other events with actual discounts, the crossed-out price would be higher. They need to put an original price and their price, so for events like this, it ends up looking funny since it's in the coding.

I get my ticket yesterday morning at 5am on goldstar. It said "only 5 left" for the cheapest $100 dollar tickets. I got one and the total was $115. Here in LA. The $99 tickets are sold out on the official ticket place.
JoseLee_, where are you sitting? Do you know, or will you find out when you get to the box office. There are still $99 seats available on the AXS website.
