Live Nation Buys 50% Of Insomniac for $50 Million!

Not bad for Pasqual, considering he started Insomniac by throwing small scale illegal warehouse parties back in the 90's.

And that's the death of US dance music festivals, monopoly acquired.

Now the next phase is whether or not they try to alienate trance, techno, and proper house from their festivals, because as far back as I can remember, I don't recall a single Live Nation event worth a shit when it comes to those genres.

Pasquale said no deal was made, so the media jumped the gun on this one.
