Live Nation says its total cash and cash equivalents balance is $3.3 billion, including $914 million free cash and $2.0 billion of event-related deferred revenue.
would suck to burn through all that tho…
although they still have 14 million tix postponed…not canceled.(only 1 mil were canceled/refunded so far)
gotta imagine if those are canceled, the math gets different fast

The New York Times showed two screencaps of Ticketmaster’s refund site, one from March 13 reading “Refunds are available if your event is postponed, rescheduled, or canceled,” and another from March 14, where that sentence was changed to “Refunds are available if your event is canceled.”
Jeff played a great version of UT’s Gun on the Tweedy family hour last night. Hadn’t heard that one in eons.

At this point I got to wonder if some promoters may continue booking shows, announcing them etc angling for bailout money…not all but I think with some of the bigger ones it’s got to be the thinking
“Hey we announced the shows, sold the tickets and you won’t let us put the show on, we understand but you got to help us out”

Enjoyed John McCauley's instagram live last night. During the set he talked about Deer Tick starting to do concerts via Twitch. So, Deer Twitch, I guess. I am unaware of the Twitch. Has anyone here watched a streamed concert via that platform?
