I'm a bit worried about this deal
. On one hand, I think it's awesome that Paris La Défense Arena will get some much-needed love from Live Nation - their upgrade program sounds like it'll make the venue truly world-class. But on the other hand, I worry that Live Nation might put too much of a commercial spin on things
. They're already one of the biggest players in the industry, so I hope they don't overshadow the local talent and events that make Paris La Défense Arena so special to start with.
What's really got me thinking is what this means for the community around the venue
. With Live Nation on board, you'd expect some sort of economic boost from all the increased activity - but it also means a lot more tourists and big-budget productions might be more of a focus than the local artists and events that made the arena popular in the first place
.
Still, I guess only time will tell how things shake out
. If Live Nation can manage to balance their commercial ambitions with a commitment to supporting the local community, then this could be a real win for everyone involved
