yes, but, look at it this way.
they have 20 bands on the main stage of the palladium.
the first of them is a local band who does not get paid, even though they need to sell tickets. fair enough, cuz in milwaukee you have to pay to play. the next 19 bands all have guarantees of various amounts.
the same amount of people are going to come to the show anyway, so massconcerts in fact throwing away money.
they could have 17 bands on the main stage who have guarantees and use those other 3 spots for locals who do not get paid, but need the exposure. then massconcerts will save themselves money and look like good guys to local bands. now if they did that on both stages, both days (this is new england i am talking about now) that adds up.
and the same amount of people will still come to the fest, and on time since it always sells out.
