They are a competitor of ours so I am biased. And they are the biggest of them all. If they stayed out of Austin I guess I wouldn't have a big problem with them. No... that is not true. I just don't like how they do things. Their merger with Ticketmaster. I don't like their business practices. They treat their employees like poop filled robots.
Oh, and last week they pulled the plug on the Springsteen and McCartney midway through a show in Hyde Park (London)! lol. Not that they had much of a choice but still!
But given they are a spin off of Clear Channel (founded by McCombs - oh and I don't like Clear Channel either - lol), and bought the House of Blues chain (DeJoria) who are both big investors in COTA, it was inevitable.
