DENVER (CBS4)- The only game in town for years, at least when it came to buying tickets, was Ticketmaster. Now, AEG Live is kicking off its own ticketing service called AXS.

The system kicks off in Denver with the Ogden and Bluebird Theaters. It will eventually grow to serve hundreds of AEG venues around the world.
