September 12, 2009, 15 years ago
New photos of VAN HALEN guitar legend Eddie Van Halen - including two from his 5150 Studios in the Studio City neighborhood of Los Angeles, California - are available on his official MySpace here.
According to Dana Parker-McClain from Pollstar.com, Van Halen will hit the road in 2010, Ticketmaster Entertainment CEO Irving Azoff announced during the 2009 Bank of America Merrill Lynch Media, Communications and Entertainment Conference Sept. 9.
This was not expected to be the time when the next VH tour would be announced, but some lines got crossed and the information was brought during the Q&A.;
Azoff also announced TM plans to unveil interactive seat maps in the fourth quarter followed by dynamic ticket pricing in 2010 and praised the company’s initial moves into paperless ticketing.
Live Nation CEO Michael Rapino, who joined Azoff for their first ever co-presentation at the conference, echoed the need for more dynamic pricing in ticketing and called LN’s no service fee Wednesdays offering this summer a success, garnering 80 to 90 percent approval ratings in exit surveys with fans.
The principals remained fairly mum about the pending merger deal, however both expressed hope they’ll see closure by the end of the year.
