Hey Everyone!
Yup, its true! A free Drake & Hanson show planned for New York City was shutdown by cops today due to safety hazards. No one had a chance to grace the stage before the NYPD decided to cancel the performance and clear the area. So what caused the cancellation? Apparently- far too many people showed up! I have to ask... what were they expecting? Drake is a huge up and coming hip hop artist with an album that dropped yesterday to rave reviews and probably major sales... wouldnt you think that throwing a FREE concert in a major city would result in a disaster? I would. Its kind of common sense...
In any case, the lack of space kind of drove people crazy. They began to climb up buildings and structures for a better view. When security asked them to come down, they got vicious. Sadly, quite a few people were hurt in the event. Just goes to show you that concerts can still be violent. Tragic really. If everyone would just take it easy and relax a bit, then concerts could be a fun experience like they're supposed to be! Dont you miss those days? I do :(
What do you think? Were the cops in the right? Watching the footage, I'd say they were!
Rock on,

Bamboozle Expect Boom In Ticket Sales With Upcoming Announcement
So rumor has it that the New York Times will be announcing some new acts scheduled to join the already astonishing lineup of the 2010 New Jersey Bamboozle Festival. The three day concert spectacular, already slated to host acts like Paramore and Weezer, is now said to be bringing rising stars Ke$ha and Drake into the mix. With a mega star lineup that crosses over a variety of genres, who can blame them for expecting a rapid growth in ticket sales?
What do you think of this announcement? If its true, would you be more inclined to go?
Could be interesting
