Tuesday Update!!

Because I am just now getting to them....

  • Led Zeppelins first ever performance in Denmark will be honored with a Plaque at the place it all started.  The Yardbirds were originally booked for the bill but had broke up prior to the show. Zep took the stage as "The New Yardbirds" changing their name shortly thereafter.
  • Last Monday there was yet another stage collapse in Cleveland due to high winds. Mercy Me was scheduled to perform but damage was deemed to excessive for clean up and performing. Fortunately no one was harmed as this happened prior to the scheduled show.
  • Rob Hallet, UK AEG Live promotor, thinks ticket prices are too cheap due to the fact they are sold on the secondary market for an increased value - While in the same article claims none of their shows sold out this year. I am not even sure what the point is in arguing this, go ahead and raise your prices and see how many less people show up next year........
  • For your ultimate music lawsuit(s) fix check out this link - including Happy Birthday, Neil Young vs. Geffen, Harrison and Fogerty plagiarizing themselves and the infamous Judas Priest "backward masking" case.
