Are there any other huge names they have 360 degree deals with?

The meltdown would be epic.  Live Nation hate + U2 hate together in one thread.

[i am gay and i like cats]

people at concerts nowadays sure can be rude to total strangers.  i think they've all been conditioned by the "safeness by computer screens" so they think they can say whatever to anybody.

went to see pat benatar . . . and man, there are some really out of shape fat guys who think they can just say what they want to people at concerts.  and boy they get upset when you hear what they said and stare at them.  no wonder serial killers exist.  some people really do suck.

I guess this could go here too...

My favorite (eg, most offensive) comedian will be in DC October 20-23 at the DC Improv.

Jim Jeffries
Improv DC
Oct 20-23

He comes highly recommended by Smackie, though he's not for the faint.  Certainly not a date night, though if she doesn't walk out, she's a keeper.

this does not belong in "Just Announced"... this is old news.

Jens Lekman show is a stripped down set with a drummer...uh, I think I'm gonna pass.

[hutch]

definitely people at concerts suck.. which is why the bigger the concert the more people suck...

this is why i can hardly stomach any festival.. virgin fest has had a good vibe past few years though....

I remember hearing him say how much money he lost on the tour he did with the big ensemble (1st Black Cat show, 2007?)...but it sure was great.
