Ticket agent gives back

SOURCE

Ace Ticket owner Jim Holzman tells us he’ll happily give to charity any money he makes selling tickets to the New Kids on the Block’s House of Blues show Dec. 20. Yesterday we reported Donnie Wahlberg was upset that ticket agencies had snapped up tix to the show, which is a fund-raiser for Toys for Tots. Ace, for example, is getting up to $300 for a $60 seat. “We do not expect you to pay insane amounts from scalpers,’’ Wahlberg tweeted. “Use your own discretion.’’ A chagrined-sounding Holzman called to say he was unaware the HOB show was a benefit. “We’re a little embarrassed about this whole thing,’’ he admitted. “And we’re going to give the profit from New Kids sales to Toys for Tots. We want to do the right thing at the right time.’’
