"Pearl Jam has always advocated on behalf of their fans and we hope more artists, teams and venues follow their lead and start using the all-in pricing display available on Ticketmaster," the ticket-selling platform said in a statement.
They added that this type of transaction would be better for supporters, especially if it would be mandated nationally.
