Lavigne to go to Front Line?
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 15 December 2008
Following those reports last week that Avril Lavigne was parting company with Nettwerk management, rumours today that she is hiring the services if Irving Azoff’s Front Line Management which is, of course, now part of the Ticketmaster group.
Those rumours come as chatterers say Lavigne has quit Nettwerk because of growing dissatisfaction with album and concert ticket sales which, she presumably thinks, are lower than they could be because of management decisions.
If that’s true it’ll be a little ironic given that Nettwerk and its chief Terry McBride are known as pioneers in developing non-traditional revenue streams for their artists, while one of their biggest (former) artists, Lavigne is, it seems, very much focused on the two most traditional sources of income.
