Kid Rock has shared the steps he has taken so that scalpers can not purchase and resale tickets at inflated prices to the dates on his upcoming Freedom 250 Tour - The Road To Nashville this spring.

He took to social media and shared: Kid Rock's Freedom 250 Tour is using Ticketmaster's Face Value Exchange to keep tickets in the hands of real fans - not scalpers.

*Tickets can only be resold for the original price paid, including fees and taxes.
No markups.

*If you can't make the show, the only place to resell is on Ticketmaster.

*Ticketmaster does not charge any fees to resell or to purchase resold tickets.

*Ticket transfer is turned off in most places - that's how we stop tickets from being flipped on other sites for profit.

*If you're bringing friends, you'll enter the show together with your group.

*Face Value Exchange makes sure every resale ticket is 100% legit and gets fans through the door.

*If you buy on any other site, there is no guarantee you'll get in the door - and most likely you won't.

*Some states, like Illinois, don't allow artists like me to restrict resale, so transfer has to stay on - but Ticketmaster will still keep prices at face value on its site.

*This isn't perfect, but it's a real step to shut down scalpers and protect fans.

*No extra cost to fans - same tickets, same prices, just fairer access.

*Bottom line: buy tickets, go to the show, and if plans change, sell them the right way so another fan gets in
