New to the concert calendar, California gurl Katy Perry, who is hitting the road this summer on a 41-city U.S. tour. And she'll get to Raleigh early on -- date number five happens June 14 at the RBC Center. Ticket details are still to come. Tickets go on sale at noon on Saturday, Jan. 29.

Wed, 01/26/2011 - 12:24 — Bob_SconceIs there any way to avoid the LiveNation convenience fee? When Ticketmaster was handling events at Walnut Creek, it used to be possible to go straight to the Walnut Creek box office and avoid the convenience fee. (I'm really more interested in the Buffett Concert at W-C in April, but probably applies to blue-hair girl also.)

Wed, 01/26/2011 - 16:38 — dmenconi (author)There was a brief period when Walnut Creek's box office didn't do service charges, but they do now. RBC, however, has no service charges for tickets bought at their box office. So go there to buy your Katy Perry tickets and save a few bucks.
