Why you should not buy from Ticketmaster.
The main reason to refuse to buy from Ticketmaster is that it demands customers pay digitally, and thus not anonymously. I am pretty sure that purchasing a ticket through Ticketmaster also requires running nonfree JavaScript software. (Can anyone send me factual confirmation of this?)

I have never thought of attending a concert which used Ticketmaster. The concerts that interest me tend to smaller, with kinds of music that are less well known. You can buy tickets locally easily for those.
