Rock am Ring festival evacuated due to bomb threats

I was at the Hollywood Bowl bomb threat show and am already really tired of threats affecting shows.

Is this going to be an ongoing thing? 

 

Is this going to be an ongoing thing?

Most of the industry seems to think so and are preparing extensive screening procedures to keep venues and concert goers safe.

Body searches in effect today.

I'm happy to report that the $20 show alert remains largely unaffected by the fear & loathing gripping the mainstream concert-going audience.

It's obviously a skeevy Insurance Conglomerate scam to start hawking more expensive concert explosi'on policies.

They are always dreaming up a new racket.

I still rue the day I got suckered into 'TwinkleToes' full coverage.

At least for now. In short order, the insurance companies will mandate similar procedures at the minor venue level. No heavy security check coming inside, no coverage if something happens.

Not to get too hipster about it, but I wish them luck in finding the venues that I go to.

Attix is cool, everybody. Bomb threats at concerts are everyone else's problem...

Good morning Gravy. Shake it off.

I have a buddy who is about to go on tour with the Foo Fighters in Europe doing a bunch of dates including festivals and I know he was a little leery even before this Rock am Ring thing. Shitty.
