Corporate Dorkiness != Rock 'n' Roll

Oh dear lord. Following in the long line of cool places being taken over by, and much worse, renamed, by geeky corporations, Columbus Ohio's premier rock venue The PromoWest Pavillion just got renamed by it's new owners to The Lifestyle Communities Pavillion. I don't think I can ever go to another rock show there again. We all know it's been happening for a while, but the sad thing is that it's moved from the super-large stadiums slowly down to the smaller ones. And for what gain? I fear soon even clubs like CBGB's will be taken over and renamed to the "Vidal Sassoon Rock Club" or something stupid like that.

In the words of dear Banjo, "This town is like school on Saturday, Otis. NO CLASS!!"

Also, Fernando, apparently your mother was bought out by some company called "Sailors Wanted" since that's what the sign above her door reads.

Comments:
Greg Brady was your mother's pimp in the late 70's.
