This is great to see. Just this past weekend I went to a music festival in NYC (The Governor's Ball) whose ticketing was handled exclusively by Eventbrite. I can't remember the last time I was able to buy anything music related online without Ticketmaster being involved. I hope to be able to do it a lot more.

The "refunding your ticket if you try to sell it" thing, well, that's going to be a pain. Glastonbury Festival in the UK has tried to combat this, and ended up basically producing photo IDs for every ticket. A whole ton of effort, especially for a small attempt like this.
