goldstarevents.com — 'Great nights out, for about the price of a movie!'

Long story short: it came from outer space, or at least the closest thing on Earth to it: Los Angeles.

Now it's worked its way to the East Coast.

What is goldstarevents.com?

A discount tickets website that offers a flat 50% discount from the original price of every ticket it sells to concerts, plays and sporting events.

Registration is free; the company makes its nut through service fees, which vary on a sliding scale depending on ticket price.

So far they're up and running in
