I mean sure, you don;t want to drive away your audience, but the existence of a second hand market with much high prices clearly means you aren't pricing tickets correctly. The existence of the scalper with the 10 or 100x price is the second-order effect of under pricing, and everything Ive read already suggests that audience makeups are changing at music festivals as more tickets are bought second hand at these considerable markups.
