Ohio gas rises to
average $3.02
COLUMBUS (AP) —
Ohioans are paying 9 cents
more for gas this week after
prices broke through the $3
barrier for the first time in
more than two years.
A survey from auto club
AAA, the Oil Price Information
Service and Wright Express
puts the state’s average price
for regular-grade gasoline at
about $3.02 per gallon, up
from $2.93 last Monday.
Last Wednesday, the aver-
age popped above the $3 mark
for the first time since Oct. 11,
2008.
Some OPEC members
have indicated the group
doesn’t plan to boost oil out-
put in response to increased
demand, which has been push-
ing fuel prices higher. Crude
oil has jumped to near $92 a
barrel.
In Ohio one year ago,
motorists paid a lower $2.62,
on average, for regular.
Polish Mass
eliminated at
Ohio church
YOUNGSTOWN (AP)
— After 44 years, a north-
east Ohio church is ending
its traditional weekly Polish
language Mass.
The decision was made
recently to end the weekly
Polish Mass at St. Stanislaus
Roman Catholic Church in
Youngstown, and Sunday’s
liturgy may have been the
final curtain. About 70 people
attended.
As part of a reor-
ganization, the Diocese of
Youngstown will merge St.
Stanislaus and two other
churches. The Vindicator
newspaper reports a declining
number of priests contributed
to the decision.
The elimination of the
Polish Mass has prompted
some parishioners to decide
to worship at other parishes.
Others will stay for Mass in
English.
Ohio families
remember teens
killed in crash
CRESTON (AP) — The
10-year anniversary of an
Ohio car crash that killed six
teens has brought their fam-
ilies and the lone survivor
together for a memorial.
A sister of a 15-year-old
boy who died with five friends
says many of the parents
hadn’t seen each other since
right after the Dec. 27, 2000
accident. Family members
gathered Sunday at a church
in Creston, near the crash site
south of Cleveland.
It was partly the idea of
Katie Massie, who was
14-year-old Katie Gonzalez
when she survived her crash
injuries. She tells The Daily
Record of Wooster it’s

who died.
Police said the 18-year-old
who was driving six of his
friends on a late night fast-
food run lost control of the car
and struck a tree. The young-
est victim was 13.
Library lends
electric meters
MARYSVILLE (AP) —
An Ohio library has begun
lending a different type of
reading material: electricity
meters that read the energy
used by household applianc-
es.
The Marysville Public
Library in central Ohio has
10 meters donated by Dayton
Power & Light that patrons
may borrow for a week to
identify areas to cut energy
use and costs at home.
A user plugs an electricity
meter into a wall, then plugs
an appliance into the device.
The meter determines how
much it costs per hour to run
the item, using information
from the customer’s electric
bill.
The library’s Patty
O’Connor tells The Columbus
Dispatch she read about a
similar program at the Seattle
Public Library and thought it
sounded “cool.” So, she con-
tacted Dayton Power & Light
to see if it would provide the
$20 meters.

No love for Cincinnati nuisance landlord law
CINCINNATI (AP) — A three-
year-old Cincinnati law meant to
hold landlords more accountable
for problems at their properties
is a sore point with both neigh-
borhood advocates and property
owners.
Police say about one in five
of the city’s 25,000 multifam-
ily dwellings generates all the
nuisance calls, the Cincinnati
Enquirer reported Sunday.
The nuisance law, modeled after
one in Milwaukee, allows Cincinnati
police to bill apartment owners for
cost of police runs if they generate
too many calls for any of more than
a dozen complaints from loud noise
to felony assaults.
Multifamily units are consid-
ered a chronic nuisance if they
generate more than three calls in a
month or six to 18 calls annually,
depending on number of units.
If a property is designated a
chronic nuisance, police can put
the landlord on notice to come
up with a plan to reduce nuisance
STATE/LOCAL
calls. The alternative: monthly
bills for police calls and possible
criminal fines of up to $1,000.
Large landlords such as
Downtown Property complain that
the annual nuisance call thresh-
old discriminates against them
because of how many people live
in their properties.
“We pay taxes for police servic-
es like everyone else,” says Hari
Ramineni, operations manager for
Downtown Property Management
Inc., one of the city’s largest land-
lords, with nearly 3,000 apartment
units.
The company is suing Cincinnati
in federal court over the law, call-
ing it vague and saying it isn’t
equally applied. Ramineni also is
appealing fees he’s been charged
for police calls to his buildings.
Stepped-up enforcement and
ongoing landlord training on deal-
ing with problem tenants has cut
the number of nuisance calls by
12 percent from 20,354 in 2008 to
17,845 so far this year, police say.

the roads. In greater Boston, highways into the
city were nearly abandoned early today as many
workers were given the day off and others were on
vacation for the holiday week.
The blizzard-like conditions wreaked havoc on
travelers from the Carolinas to Maine.
Airlines scrambled to rebook passengers on
thousands of canceled flights — more than 1,400
out of the New York City area’s three major air-
ports alone — but said they didn’t expect normal
service to resume until Tuesday. Amtrak canceled
train service from New York to Boston after doing
the same earlier for several trains in Virginia.
The Long Island Rail Road, the nation’s larg-
est commuter rail system, also suspended service.
Bus companies canceled routes up and down the
East Coast, and drivers faced hazardous travel —
sometimes with close to zero visibility.
A spokesman said Boston’s Logan International
Airport could take days to get back to normal.
Wind gusts of up to 80 mph knocked out
power to thousands. Utilities reported about
30,000 customers were out in Rhode Island and
Massachusetts, mostly on Cape Cod and south
of Boston.
In Wells, Maine, police say a 59-year-old man
died several hours after his pickup crashed into a
tree during whiteout conditions Sunday night.
In Connecticut, Allie Campbell discovered
her mother had taken a critical fuse out of her car
Sunday night to ensure her daughter’s safety.
“She texted me and said, ‘You don’t pay for
Photos submitted the insurance, you’re not driving,”’ Campbell
said today, laughing, as she reported to her job at
Katz ACE Hardware in Glastonbury — after her
mother surrendered the fuse.
Peter Iarossi, a train conductor for MBCR,
which operates commuter rail trains for the
Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, saw
his normal 15-minute commute stretch to an hour
because of the blizzard conditions.
He woke up extra early and was sitting in his
idling car at the railyard an hour before his 6:45
a.m. train was to leave to start its run to Boston.
The monster storm is the result of a low pres-
sure system off the North Carolina coast and
strengthened as it moved northeast, the National
Weather Service said. Because of it, parts of

Information from Pakistan’s tribal belt is very

is legally restricted, and ongoing conflict there

The Pakistani Taliban recently kidnapped 23
tribesmen who welcomed Army head Gen. Ashfaq
Parvez Kayani on a Dec. 7 visit to South Waziristan

In Congress, hard line
on illegal immigrants
By SUZANNE GAMBOA
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The
end of the year means a turn-
over of House control from
Democratic to Republican
and, with it, Congress’
approach to immigration.
In a matter of weeks,
Congress will go from trying
to help young, illegal immi-
grants become legal to debat-
ing whether children born to
parents who are in the country
illegally should continue to
enjoy automatic U.S. citizen-
ship.
Such a hardened approach
— and the rhetoric certain
to accompany it — should
resonate with the GOP faith-
ful who helped swing the
House in Republicans’ favor.
But it also could further hurt
the GOP in its endeavor to
grab a large enough share of
the growing Latino vote to
win the White House and the
Senate majority in 2012.
Legislation to test inter-
pretations of the 14th
Amendment as granting citi-
zenship to children of illegal
immigrants will emerge early
next session. That is likely
to be followed by attempts
to force employers to use a
still-developing web system,
dubbed E-Verify, to check
that all of their employees are
in the U.S. legally.
Kennedy’s exit leaves a family void
By ANDREW MIGA
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The
Kennedys have held congres-
sional seats, the presidency
and the public’s imagina-
tion for more than 60 years.
That era ends when Patrick
Kennedy of Rhode Island
vacates his U.S. House seat
next month, leaving a city
council post in California as
Camelot’s sole remaining
political holding.
The son of the late
Massachusetts Sen. Edward
Kennedy said he has no
qualms about walking away
from politics. His depar-
ture marks the first time in
63 years there won’t be a
Kennedy serving in elected
office in Washington.
“In my family, the leg-
acy was always public ser-
vice, and that didn’t neces-
sarily mean public office,”
Kennedy, 43, said in a recent
interview on Capitol Hill with
The Associated Press.
He recited a long list of
Kennedy family members
who have spurned politics
and chosen lives as activists
promoting issues such as the
environment, human rights
and women’s issues.
Kennedy plans to continue
the tradition by champion-
ing a national effort to boost

Miller won’t block Murkowski Senate certification
By BECKY BOHRER
Associated Press
JUNEAU, Alaska —
Republican Joe Miller said
he won’t stand in the way
of incumbent Sen. Lisa
Murkowski being certified
the winner of Alaska’s U.S.
Senate race, but he vowed to
continue his legal fight over
the state’s handling of the
vote count.
Miller’s announcement
late Sunday paves the way
for Murkowski — a write-
in candidate after losing the
Republican nomination to
Miller — to eventually be
declared winner of the race.
Election officials deter-
mined Murkowski had the
most votes in the November
election but were barred from
certifying a victory by a fed-
eral judge, who issued a stay
to give the courts time to rule
on Miller’s claims the vote
count was mishandled.
Sunday’s decision means
Miller won’t file any motions
to stop the court from lifting
the stay.
Miller said he wants to
ensure Alaska has full repre-
sentation when senators are
sworn in for the new term of
Congress on Jan. 5.
“This decision will allow
Alaskans to focus on bringing
fairness and transparency to

ended the year failing for a
second time to win passage
of the Dream Act, which
would have given hundreds
of thousands of young illegal
immigrants a chance at legal
status.
House Republicans will try
to fill the immigration reform
vacuum left by Democrats
with legislation designed to
send illegal immigrants pack-
ing and deter others from try-
ing to come to the U.S.
Democrats, who will still
control the Senate, will be
playing defense against harsh
immigration enforcement
measures, mindful of their
need to keep on good footing
with Hispanic voters. But a
slimmer majority and an eye
on 2012 may prevent Senate
Democrats from bringing to
the floor any sweeping immi-
gration bill, or even a limited
one that hints at providing
legal status to people in the
country illegally.
President Barack Obama
could be a wild card.
He’ll have at his disposal
his veto power should a bill
denying citizenship to children
of illegal immigrants make it
inject the same urgency that
his late uncle, President John
F. Kennedy, inspired during
the 1960s with his challenge
to Americans to put a man on
the moon.
Still, Kennedy’s exit from
the nation’s capital marks a
bittersweet turn for one of
America’s most powerful and
prominent political families, a
family that has seen its influ-
ence in Washington fade in
recent years as its younger
generations have largely
shunned public office.
“It is a milestone,”
said Allan J. Lichtman, an
American University history
professor. “Frankly, it’s not as
if there’s a new generation of
Kennedys ready to move into
public life in a major way.”
Politics was the family
business, the lifeblood of a
dynasty that often dominated
the public stage with its tri-
umphs, as well as its personal
traumas.
The family name has
been writ large for decades.

Kennedy is a leading voice
on mental health issues. He
championed a landmark bill
that Congress passed requir-
ing insurance companies to
treat mental health on an equal
basis with physical illnesses.
He has often spoken can-
didly about his personal
our elections process without
distraction of the certification
issue,” he said in a state-
ment.
U.S. District Judge Ralph
Beistline, who is hearing
Miller’s federal court chal-
lenge, must still decide
whether to lift his stay before
the state can move ahead with
certification. There was no
immediate word on when that
might occur.
But Beistline had already
indicated he was likely to lift
the stay, saying Alaska should
have a senator in place when
Congress’ new term begins,
even if that means later hav-
ing to replace that person
when all legal disputes are
eventually resolved.
Murkowski mounted a
write-in campaign after losing
the GOP primary to Miller.
There was no immediate
comment from Murkowski or
state election officials early
today.

to his desk. But Obama also
has made cracking down on
employers a key part of his
administration’s immigration
enforcement tactics.
Hispanic voters and their
allies will look for Obama
to broker a deal on immigra-
tion as he did on tax cuts and
health care. After the Dream
Act failed in the Senate this
month, Obama said his admin-
istration would not give up
on the measure. “At a mini-
mum we should be able to get
Dream done. So I’m going to
go back at it,” he said.
The president has taken
heavy hits in Spanish-
language and ethnic media
for failing to keep his prom-
ise to address immigration
promptly and taking it off
the agenda last summer. His
administration’s continued
deportations of immigrants —
a record 393,000 in the 2010
fiscal year — have also made
tenuous his relationship with
Hispanic voters.
John Morton, who oversees
Immigration and Customs
Enforcement, said in a recent
conference call that there
are no plans to change the
agency’s enforcement tactics,
which are focused on immi-
grants who commit crimes
but also have led to detaining
and deporting many immi-
grants who have not commit-
ted crimes.
struggles with depression and
substance abuse. Kennedy
has been treated for substance
abuse since crashing his car
outside the Capitol in 2006,
and he has struggled with
alcoholism and drug addic-
tion for much of his life.
Kennedy will highlight
the need for expanding brain
research with a conference
in Boston in May on the 50th
anniversary of JFK’s moon-
shot challenge.
He recalled that the treat-
ment his father received
helped prolong his battle with
brain cancer.
“My dad was given an
extra year of life because the
science was good,” Kennedy
said. “Against initial expecta-
tions, he had a much longer
time, and that was meaningful
time, at least in our relation-
ship. So that’s personal.”
Five months after his
father’s death in 2009,
Kennedy announced he would
not seek a ninth term.
As he leaves Congress,
there’s speculation about who
could emerge, if anyone, to
revive the family’s political
legacy in Washington.
Some Democrats hope
Kennedy’s brother Edward
Kennedy Jr. will run for
Congress. The Connecticut
attorney has said he is con-
sidering politics but has no
immediate plans.
Back and fourth court
challenges followed. On
Wednesday, the Alaska
Supreme Court refused to
overturn election results
favoring Murkowski.
In an at-times strongly
worded 4-0 opinion, the
high court said it found “no
remaining issues raised by
Miller that prevent this elec-
tion from being certified.”
After the ruling, the
state said it intended to ask
Beistline to lift the stay.
Beistline gave Miller a morn-
ing deadline to decide wheth-
er to pursue remaining issues
further, in federal court.
Miller said late Sunday
that after “careful consider-
ation and seeking the counsel
of people whose opinion I
respect and trust,” he decided
not to fight certification but
to press on with his case.
“We want the end result
of this legal action to be
for the people of Alaska to
not only have full faith in
the outcome of this race but
a confidence in the manner
in which elections will be
conducted in our state in the
future,” he said. “Election
integrity is vital.”
Miller contends the state
violated the election and
equal protection clauses of
the U.S. Constitution in its
handling of the vote count.

time soon.
The NFL’s best team in
December couldn’t handle its
first snowy afternoon. The
Chargers dressed for warmups
like it was a day at the beach,
then froze up the first
time they touched the
ball. With everything
at stake, they went
slip-sliding right out
of contention.
Carson Palmer
was nearly perfect
in the swirling snow — four
touchdowns, no interceptions
— in the Cincinnati Bengals’
34-20 win on Sunday that
ended the Chargers’ streak of
four straight years in the play-
offs as AFC West champs.
“It’s tough anytime you’re
eliminated from a chance of
playing for the postseason,”
said QB Philip Rivers, who
had an ordinary game in his
usually superlative month.
“It’s something I haven’t dealt
with since I’ve been play-
ing here. This was the final
straw.”
The Chargers (8-7) knew
they had to win to stay a game
behind Kansas City (10-5),
which beat Tennessee earlier
Sunday. A loss would knock
them out of contention and
give the Chiefs the title.
San Diego had won 20 of
its last 21 games in December,
though most of those came in
favorable climates or domed
stadiums. Playing their cold-
est game in nearly three
years, the Chargers froze and
their second straight win with
a cast of reserve receivers.
His 59-yard touchdown to
Jerome Simpson — playing
in place of the injured Chad
Ochocinco — highlighted
a 21-point fourth quarter
against the league’s
top-ranked defense.
Palmer finished
with a career-best
passer rating of 157.2,
just shy of a perfect
158.3. He completed
16-of-21 for 269 yards with-
out an interception.
“That’s the finest game
that Carson has played here,”
said Marvin Lewis, who may
have coached his final game
in Cincinnati.
The difference between
the teams was stunning.
Several San Diego players
came out in blue shorts and
sleeveless shirts for pregame
warmups on a 29-degree after-
noon with blowing snow and
a wind chill of 17. Almost as
though they were trying to con-
vince themselves the weather
wouldn’t bother them.
Two plays told them oth-
erwise.
San Diego tried a reverse
on its opening play but receiv-
er Vincent Jackson fumbled
the ball backward to the
1-yard line. The series ended
with Mike Scifres shanking a
24-yard punt into the wind.
Five plays later, Palmer
threw a 3-yard touchdown
pass to Jermaine Gresham.
Things never got better

Chargers had won the last four
By TOM WITHERS
The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — Dressing
in the corner of Baltimore’s
locker room, Terrell Suggs
turned and asked one of his
fellow linebackers a question.
“Eric Mangini ever beat-
en us?” he asked Ray
Lewis.
Lewis just laughed.
Not yet. And maybe,
not ever.
Ed Reed intercepted
two of Cleveland rookie Colt
McCoy’s passes, Joe Flacco
threw two touchdown pass-
es Sunday and the Ravens
clinched a playoff berth with a
20-10 victory over the Browns,
dropping the embattled
Mangini to 0-5 in his career
against Baltimore.
Mangini could be down to
his last game with the Browns
(5-10), who are stumbling
toward their season finale
next Sunday at home against
Pittsburgh. After that, team
president Mike Holmgren will
decide Mangini’s fate — that
is, if he hasn’t already.
The Ravens (11-4) capital-
ized on Mangini’s gamble to
try an onside kick to begin
the second half, a risky deci-
sion that backfired when
Phil Dawson failed to kick
the ball 10 yards. Starting at
Cleveland’s 38, the Ravens
Meanwhile, the Bills (4-11)
pounced as Flacco hit Derrick
Mason for a 22-yard touch-
down pass and the only points
of the second half.
“I felt that we had a chance
for it,” Mangini said.
In beating Cleveland for the
fifth straight time, Baltimore
stayed tied with Pittsburgh atop
the AFC North with
one game left. The
Ravens host Cincinnati
next week while the
Steelers, who hold the
tiebreaker if the teams
win out, will visit the Browns.
Reed’s picks helped Lewis
back up his pregame pledge to
stop Cleveland’s Peyton Hillis,
who gashed the Ravens for 144
yards on Sept. 26. This time,
Hillis was a non-factor, rush-
ing for just 35 yards and being
limited after Reed walloped
him on his second carry.
“It took a toll on me,” Hillis
said.
After his second inter-
ception of McCoy ended
Cleveland’s hopes for a come-
back in the fourth, Reed got
a little too close to a sideline
heater and had his full-length
jacket catch fire. Cool as can
be, Reed handled the emer-
gency with his usual finesse.
Things were broiling
between the teams all week,
starting with Lewis’ vow that
Hillis would not repeat his
Week 3 performance.
Buccaneers 38, Seahawks 15
At Tampa, Fla., Josh Freeman
“It won’t happen again,”
Lewis promised.
Then, in typical Lewis fash-
ion, he backed it up.
The Browns felt disre-
spected by Lewis’ comments
and FB Lawrence Vickers told
him as much before the game
when the teams got frisky dur-
ing warmups. Vickers jawed
at Lewis and several players
from both teams had to be
separated by coaches.
“Guys definitely made
note of it,” Browns tackle Joe
Thomas said of Lewis remarks.
“You don’t have to be a rocket
scientist to figure out it’s a lack
of respect.”
Lewis explained his com-
ments were nothing personal
against Hillis. His goal was to
get the Ravens ready.
“Sometimes you’ve got to
let people know you’re com-
ing,” he added. “We needed to
understand that they’d come
out and give us everything
they had. I’m not here to let
somebody run the ball and beat
us. That’s why I spoke to my
men, from my heart.
“It wasn’t about trash-talk-
ing, it was about saying what
I felt in my heart needed to
happen for us to win.”
Reed wasted no time in
sending a message to Hillis,
ramming his helmet into the
back’s ribs. Hillis wasn’t the
same and neither were the
nine games.
Browns, 2-5 since stunning
New England on Nov. 7. The
late-season slide could be the
final straw for Mangini, 10-21
in two seasons.
His chances of keeping his
job may be further damaged
by questionable clock manage-
ment to end the first half and
the failed onside kick.
“What killed us were the
turnovers and the mistakes,”
added Mangini, 2-9 with
Cleveland inside the division.
“The Ravens are very difficult
to beat when you play flawless
football. When you turn the
ball over as many times as we
did, it makes it really, really
difficult.”
Billy Cundiff kicked field
goals of 27 and 40 yards as
Baltimore won its sixth straight
over Cleveland.
McCoy had his worst day
as a pro. He completed 15-of-
29 for 149 yards and made
several poor throws and deci-
sions. Afterward, the third-
round pick who has had to
grow up fast, was accountable
for his mistakes and promised
to learn from them.
“In this league, in this divi-
sion and against these guys,
you’ve got to throw good balls
and I let a couple of them get
away from me and it cost us,”
said McCoy, 2-5 as a starter. “I
learned a lot. Turnovers killed
us and most of it is on me.”

explain how we feel right
now,” safety Eric Weddle

It’s probably the worst feel-

The Bengals (4-11) are
ending one of their worst sea-
to settle for a field goal after
a first-and-goal from the 1

defense ranked No. 1 in the
league gave up three touch-

an offense missing its top two

option offenses that seem like
dinosaurs in today’s college
football world.
There will be no ambushes
in today’s Independence Bowl,
though. The Yellow Jackets
and Falcons instead might feel
like they’re looking into a mir-
ror.
Georgia Tech (6-6) is the
nation’s top rushing team,
averaging 327 yards per game,
while Air Force (8-4) is right
behind at more than 317 yards
per game. There are some sub-
tle differences to each team’s
scheme — both coaches agree
that Air Force likes to take
a zone-read approach — but
matter what you do, it really
comes down to execution.”
Air Force coach Troy
Calhoun agreed but added
with both teams so familiar
with each other, it might come
down to which team is able
to strike through the air at the
perfect moment.
“The key part is what hap-
pens in the passing game,”
Calhoun said. “How efficient
are you going to be when you
do end up throwing the foot-
ball? And then defensively,
how well do you defend the
big play?”
In that regard, it appears
the Falcons would have an
advantage.
completion percentage (37.1
percent) wasn’t pretty, he had
thrown seven touchdown pass-
es this season.
Now it’s up to Tevin
Washington, who completed
20-of-48 passes for 376 yards
with two touchdowns and two
interceptions this season.
Air Force has a more bal-
anced offense. Tim Jefferson
has completed 52.2 percent of
his passes for 1,342 yards, 10
touchdowns and six intercep-
tions. He’s also rushed for 769
yards and 15 touchdowns.
But the Yellow Jackets’
real issues come from self-
inflicted wounds. Earlier in
the week, four players were
ers — defensive end Anthony
Egbuniwe and defensive backs
Michael Peterson and Louis
Young — will miss the first
half of Monday’s game for a
curfew violation. Egbuniwe’s
59 tackles are fifth on the team.
Though disappointed,
Johnson said the Yellow
Jackets wouldn’t use the issues
as a crutch.
“We’ve got guys who
can still play,” Johnson said.
“We’ve just got to show up
to play. We don’t have any
excuses. One man’s misery is
another man’s opportunity.”
Starting defensive tackle
Jason Peters agreed.

New year to see less expensive concert tix

By RYAN NAKASHIMA
Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Concertgoers sick of
ballooning ticket prices should have some
extra pocket change to rattle with their rock ’n’
roll in the new year.
2010 was tough for the concert business as
high prices kept many fans at home. Promoters
now say they plan to make shows more afford-
able in 2011. They’ll also try to sell more
T-shirts and other merchandise to make up for
lost revenue.
Heading into last summer, usually the busi-
est time of the year, prices were set too high
despite the sluggish economy. Managers and
promoters believed fans would keep paying
for the one or two concerts they see on average
each year.
Instead, many stayed home and dozens of
shows were canceled. Lots of venues filled
seats with fire-sale prices.
Now, rather than charge lots early and offer
discounts later, some promoters say they’ll
offer cheaper tickets from the start, partly
because they know fans will spend as much
as usual on beer and tchotchkes when they
arrive.
ZZ Top, for one, expects to set prices below
the 2010 average of $55. Some tickets will go
for as little as $10.
“It’s time to give the value back,” said Carl
Stubner, manager of the long-bearded rock
band from Texas. “We’ll find other ways to
make money.”
That doesn’t mean all acts will be cheap —
not even Cheap Trick, whose tickets for 2011
are selling for around $80 with fees. Fans of
hot performers including Justin Bieber and
Lady Gaga also shouldn’t expect to get much
of a break.
Neil Diamond, for instance, who’s con-
tinuing his comeback tour in New Zealand in
February, said he’d like to bring ticket prices
down, but can’t because of the size of his
production.
“As the shows get bigger, the expenses get
bigger, so it’s got to be translated somehow
to the ticket price,” he told The Associated
Press. “If I just used the guitar it’d be a lot
simpler, but then I’d have to put 50 people out
of work.”
Overall, though, more artists than ever are
going out on the road to make up for falling
CD sales. With more tickets on sale and con-
sumers still pinching pennies, the pressure on
prices is down.
Concert attendance fell 12 percent in the
first half of 2010, compared with the same
period a year ago, according to trade magazine
Pollstar. The world’s largest concert promoter,
