Concertgoer Nine McKeever said that, unfortunately, the high price for tickets is part of seeing a show.
"Once you start adding it in (the fees) and it's like, 'Oh, I'm so mad,'" she said.
McKeever has been to 10 concerts in the past five years and said she can't quantify how much she shelled out in fees.
"It's kind of just a fee that you're going to pay, especially when it's an artist that you really want to see. I'll pay anything for Beyoncé. But it definitely is frustrating, but what can you do?" said McKeever.
North Carolina Attorney General Jeff Jackson said his office will continue the fight against "unnecessary fees," even though Monday it was announced that the Justice Department and Live Nation reached a settlement agreement in an antitrust case.
"It's a pretty bad deal," Jackson said. "The core issue here was that Live Nation and Ticketmaster, when they merged a few years back, they became so powerful that they were able to raise ticket prices."
ABC News reported that under the deal, the changes include allowing competitors such as Seat Geek or StubHub to list tickets directly on its website, which would put price comparisons directly in front of consumers.
Jackson said the deal keeps a monopoly in place.
"The vast majority of AGs that started on this lawsuit are going to stay on this lawsuit -- that's Republicans and Democrats, a couple dozen of us across the country. We're working out the timeline, but we told Live Nation they can expect to see us back in court very soon," said Jackson.
A motion has been filed requesting a mistrial.
