We're just very much at...

They illegally monopolized the market for live event ticketing and they tied their concert promotion business together with the use of their venues, which is illegal.

And so if you don't know, I mean, everyone knows how Ticketmaster works, but if you like run a theater, let's say David and I ran a small theater and we had to keep it going.

We had to put on one last great show, which I think is a movie everybody would watch.

It's also the plot of the Muppets movie.

And we're like, all right, we got to get some acts in here.

The problem is that

Ticketmaster would literally run the business that sells tickets, the Ticketmaster part that everyone thinks of.

They run Live Nation, which owns competing venues, and they are the artist contract with to promote their shows.

Right.

So I'm like, hey, I, you know, who, who, uh.

Billy Eilish is one who keeps coming up.

Billy's going to headline our night-saving event.

She would do that for us.

Right.

I was thinking of Justin Bieber.

I really want Justin Bieber to show up and just watch YouTube with the audience for a while.

Hell yeah, dude.

Right.

And in the case, you saw the CEO of Barclays Center and the CEO of Live Nation argue on the phone.
