Live Nation's move to appoint Trump Ally Richard Grenell to the board made a sensation in the live music industry this week as several music directors talked to Hollywood Reporter This option is a trading action in the company's attempt to suppress the monopoly litigation scene and the Ministry of Justice faced by the Monopoly litigation.

Grenell, a long-time Trump ally, had previously served as the U.S. ambassador to Germany for Trump's first semester, and was appointed interim executive director of the Kennedy Center after the president seized control of the center in February. The Justice Department first sued the Scene National for the first time a year ago, claiming that the company used its advantages in concert promotions and stifled the game with Ticketmaster ticketing, calling for breaking down the company.

"It's not shocking to see this because it's obviously right in front of us," said Gary Witt, president and CEO of the PABST Theater Group of Milwaukee. "Just right in front of us, you're watching a deal where a group is trying to buy their way out from the Justice Department and 40 state attorneys."

The Justice Department first sued the Scene National for the first time a year ago, claiming that the company used its advantages in concert promotions and stifled the game with Ticketmaster ticketing, calling for breaking down the company. Live Nation has been denied the Justice Department's claims. Dan Wall, the company's executive vice president of corporate and regulatory affairs, wrote last year that the complaint misled the public that if something was done to Live Nation and Ticketmaster, the fare would be lowered. The Justice Department has not helped consumers solve their practical problems. ”

When asked to comment on the claim appointed by Glennell, a live representative pointed out thr The company will be announced starting Tuesday. “We are delighted to welcome RIC to our board of directors,” Randall Mays, chairman of the board of directors of Live Nation Entertainment, said in a statement Tuesday. “As Live Nation continues to contribute to the growing live music industry around the world, his background will bring valuable perspectives.”

The second music director asked to be anonymous, saying Grinel was appointed “the stupidest attempt to try to clash legal lawsuits I’ve seen” in fear of revenge on the spot.

"What expertise can he provide besides getting Trump's chances," the executive said. "What value does he offer? It's so obvious. Will they choose him if he doesn't keep close to Trump? If they don't file a lawsuit with the Justice Department, will they appoint him? Those two answers are likely no."

Grinell was appointed as the live music community has been looking for signs about how the Trump administration will inherit from the Biden administration’s live ethnic case. Whether Grinel’s appointment will have any impact on future cases.

"Of course, some people think the case is over now, but I think you can also conclude the opposite," said a policy expert who closely followed the DOJ case, who has no right to make a public statement on the matter. “You can easily argue that the scene knows they are in trouble and that this obvious strategy is increasingly desperate.”

In addition to civil litigation, last week it was reported that the Justice Department was considering separate criminal charges against the on-site ethnic and AEG competing for AEG, which filed collusion charges over its response to a canceled refund in the pandemic era. The people on the scene denied these claims.

"We have not conspired with AEG or anyone else," Wall said last week. "We are proud of leaders in those tough times and if this investigation raises any charges, we will defend them."

The appointment is as Trump himself fights more and more superstar artists in recent days. After Bruce Springsteen criticized the Trump administration at a recent concert in the UK, Trump sent a vaguely threatening message to truth social, writing that Springsteen “should shut up until he returns to the country, it’s just the ‘standard fare’. Then, we’ll all see him!”

Earlier this week, Trump called for a "major investigation" against artists such as Springsteen, Beyoncé and Bono at the presidential rally of Kamala Harris.
