An article came out today in Pollstar about Rain's postponed concerts. You can read the article here..... http://www.pollstar.com/news/viewnews.pl?NewsID=8024 If you guys read the whole article you will see that the different promoters disagree on the reasons for the postponement.

Word has it that some of the US concerts have been postponed. If you have tickets you should contact Ticketmaster to see the status of the concert you have tickets for.

Even though I didn't post a nasty message on the wrong guestbook, I was guilty of posting the link in a few places. I went back and corrected the links AND I e-mailed an apology to those guys for my part in all this.

mtlandis

Sure. If the victim has a presence in the U.S. that is large enough to have an effect on the economic stability of the one doing the suing. But c'mon! The guy's Korean! Fight the good fight if it would actually have an effect. But because the Korean Wave represents a tiny sliver of the U.S. interes...

Seems the "young and furious" decided to troll without thinking first. Bravo. Besides... do you really think that trolling a blog or messageboard will stop someone from sueing somebody else?

Because you have to register at the Beatles Experience page to leave comments, I have set up a blog where people can leave their thoughts. I will join the Beatles Experience Forum and post a link for them so they can see what is being said.

Well DMPA - just cause they aren't suing Rain right now doesn't mean they won't in the future. Consider it a pre-emptive strike.
