For many years, going to concerts was a major source of entertainment for millions of people. Lately, this form of fun has been dropping off as the economy has slowed. Going to see a major act can be expensive and the industry is starting to feel the pain. Ticket sales are down for many big stars all across the country.
Some stars have actually cut short their tours or cancelled them altogether. Other stars have been resistant to the downturn and continue to do well. Many in the industry expect that good times will return soon and that the music will continue to play.
