IN THE NEWS...Ticketmaster(bation)


As per the Ticketmaster-Live Nation merger, from the Wall Street Journal:
The merger creates a juggernaut in the music industry, combining under one roof a company able to manage artists, book them at venues that it owns and sell tickets to their concerts. The new company, called Live Nation Entertainment Inc., also will be able to sell merchandise and in some cases control the sale of recorded music.
I don't know about you, but I'm not really comfortable with words like juggernaut in the business realm. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to discover every band I like before they're famous. Damn.
