This isn't good news for the industry.

Are new competitors Live Nation and Ticketmaster already looking to merge? That’s the story according to the Wall Street Journal, which is reporting that the two concert giants are already deep in talks to consolidate into one company that would easily be the world’s biggest concert promoter, ticketing service and artist-management company.

It's certainly NOT good news for anyone who attends concerts and doesn't like spending 20% or more in service charges.

The day the music died was the day Madonna of the Diminishing Sales signed her inflated Live Nation contract. They did it knowing they would never possibly make it back on her output even though the own virtually every turd she will squeeze out of that bony collection of right angles she calls an ass.
