Kid Rock has lifted the lid on the shady practice of ticket re-sales in the music industry, revealing he is guilty of "scalping" seats to his own shows.
The musician, who recently announced plans for a budget-friendly summer tour, has confessed his team resold tickets to his concerts on exchange
website StubHub.com for more than their retail value.
Rock made the confession in an interview with TV host Piers Morgan, telling the presenter he fears many others artists are making money in the same way.
"I'm going to tell people, a lot of artists already do it," he said.
"I think I've been guilty of it in the past, too. We take some of our tickets, we put them on StubHub, overcharge with what the market determines they're worth... I'm taking 1000 of them and I'm scalping them."
