Mon Oct 26, 2009 6:00am EDT
- EVERY FAN CAN WIN AN 'ULTIMATE ACCESS PASS' GOOD FOR ALL-SHOW ACCESS TO A
LIVE NATION CLUB








LOS ANGELES, Oct. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- This Wednesday Live Nation
gives fans ultimate access to some of their favorite bands when for one day
only every single fan who buys a ticket to a Live Nation club show is
automatically entered to win an Ultimate Access Pass to the venue for which
they bought their ticket.  The Ultimate Access Pass is Live Nation's golden
ticket, good for admission to every single show in 2010 to an individual Live
Nation venue. Every Live Nation club venue will have an Ultimate Access
winner, with the names of winners posted on LiveNation.com Thursday morning at
12 Noon Eastern time.  On Ultimate Access Wednesday every single ticket will
be available at reduced cost as Live Nation drops the service fee on hundreds
of thousands of tickets in its club venues across the country for one day
only.

In addition to offering the concert goers the chance to win the Ultimate
Access Pass, Live Nation is bringing music fans and their favorite bands
closer together by hosting fan-and-band meet and greets at venues across the
country.  Bands including Anvil, Between The Buried And Me, Dethklok and
Mastodon, Hellogoodbye, Hollywood Undead with Atreyu and Escape The Fate,
LMFAO with Shwayze, Taking Back Sunday, Tesla and The Used will spend the
afternoon meeting fans, taking pictures and answering questions.  The box
offices at Live Nation clubs will be open on Wednesday afternoon, selling no
service fee tickets to all scheduled events.  All fans purchasing tickets at
the box office on Wednesday will also be entered to win the Ultimate Access
Pass for that club.

It all happens Wednesday, October 28th as Live Nation drops the service fee on
hundreds of thousands of tickets in its club venues across the country.  In
addition to the onsite meet and greets, the No Service Fee offer will also be
available at www.LiveNation.com for 24 hours beginning at 12:01 a.m. local
time on Wednesday, October 28th on participating shows.

"I just want to say that Hollywood Undead is totally stoked to have this
chance to give back to all of our fans across the Nation on this tour," said
Hollywood Undead's Charlie Scene.  "It's really cool to see everybody working
together for the greater good of music and live shows."

"This week we're bringing fans 3 amazing opportunities," said Michael Rapino,
President and Chief Executive Officer of Live Nation.  "The first is the
opportunity for fans to connect directly with the bands they love in our
venues, as the bands themselves help sell no service fee tickets. Second, is
the chance to win 'Ultimate Access Pass,' to every one of our clubs.  And
third, is the chance to pick up no service fee tickets to see their favorite
bands on hundreds of thousands of club tickets on LiveNation.com.  This
Wednesday is all about Live Nation and the bands we work with saying 'thanks'
to the fans for their support and their love of live music."
