Mexico's Up And Coming Music Genre - Drug Ballads?

To Our Loyal Subscribers, It is the Holiday season again as yet another year comes to a close. It has been a good year, even though the world economy and by extension, the entertainment industry still faces continued challenges. This will be the final publication of Encore for the year and as is our custom, we like to take a look back at some of the key events that shaped our industry. After only a year, the post-merger Live Nation climbed into the black, despite a lean summer touring season while Irving Azoff consolidated his position at the company. U2 wound up their 360 tour, and it was one for the record books after playing to more than 7.2 million fans and grossing $736 million in the final tally. Digital music continued to make strides, even as physical product sales continued to dwindle. Digital players such as iTunes and Spotify made headlines while both Warner and EMI were sold on Wall Street. Stage collapses at several high profile festivals, including Bluesfest, Pukkelpop and the Indiana State Fair left numerous concert-goers injured or killed and have drawn yet answered questions about safety standards for outdoor event staging. British retro singer Adele continued to take the charts and the music world by storm, but is waiting for recovery from vocal cord surgery before she graces the stage again. The untimely passing of Amy Winehouse took many by surprise, though her music continues to be as popular as ever. Phillip Anschutz and AEG made great strides in realizing their goal of constructing a new NFL stadium in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. Music and creativity lost a 'genius' with the death of Apple's Steve Jobs. The company's new CEO Tim Cook will lead Apple into 2012, succeeding the iPhone 4S and 'Siri' with the possibility and hope of new flavors of the fruit. Finally, as the year draws to a close, we wish to thank all of you for your continued support. We wish you and your family a very happy holiday and a prosperous new year. We look forward to continuing to work with you for many years to come. Peter Denholtz & Marc Gentilella
