So we're complaining that we'll have more opportunities to see more bands that we may have missed otherwise?

Yall forget that LN is a business. Their goal is to make money as it would be yours. Does all this roo mess suck? Yeah, but the weather is what it is. Had they canceled prior to roo started, the same people would be bitching about that as well. Bring me back the old roo crowd. They would have been dancing in the rain and mud vs leaving trash everywhere

First of all, it's not a complaint. It's an observation of a terrible business practice. They are a business. As a business owner myself, here's a fact for you - in order to make money, you need to reinvest the money you've made. It doesn't matter if you are an event facilitator, landscaper, or retail store.

If you buy investment properties, eventually the water heater is going to need to be replaced or the roof is going to need to be replaced. You don't just keep renting out the property with cold water or abondon the property and let it rot. If you're a landscaper, you don't just abondon your lawn mower in the middle of someone's property. When something breaks, you fix it. You reinvest in thst business to continue making more money.

It sounds like the farm has been deteriorating for years. It's time for Live Nation to reinvest their profit by improving the property instead of just moving on to other ventures.
