Death, Postponements and cheap beer

  • Donna Summer dead at 63. The Queen of Disco had been fighting cancer and died at her Florida home. Looks like I will have to break out the Casblanca Records box set this weekend.
  • IMPLOSION ALERT! Van Halen have postponed 30 dates of their currently scheduled tour. The remainder of dates through June, including Dallas, are still on. Depending on what you read the rumors are: infighting and lack of ticket sales (or at least the more expensive seats) etc.-However promoters are reporting sold out or near sold out shows, and if infighting is the reason why not postpone shows starting now?
  • Live Nation is reporting reduced concession prices at most of it's amphitheaters including $4 beers. It's almost like it's 2005 again......
  • I have been lax in updating attended shows lately. Next up Rammstein in Houston for the last date of the North American tour. I am skeptical of the venue however.
