Last week’s No Service Fee Wednesday saw a 500 percent sales spike for shows being held at Live Nation-owned amphitheaters.

The company already announced that for each Wednesday throughout the summer, a different “recession-busting” special would be implemented.

This week’s special – announced today—is almost identical to last week’s, with one big difference – the sale applies to all tickets, not just lawn tickets, as specified in the inaugural sale.

Keep in mind that the sale only applies to certain concerts (check http://www.livenation.com for the list at each venue) and that parking, tax and other fees still apply. Also, the fees can only be deducted for tickets purchased at the venue box offices (that means you guys who might be reading this in the Virginia Beach or Manassas areas) and on the Live Nation Web site.

The “No Service Fee Wednesday” runs for 24 hours, starting at 12:01 a.m. on, duh, Wednesday.

And if you missed last week’s Beat column discussing the Live Nation promotion, as well as a couple of upcoming free shows at Innsbrook, check it out here.

This was not only the reason for building the amphitheatre. When the democratic system was changed to an imperial one, the emperors needed a way to keep the people happy, although they had lost the right to vote. The fights fulfilled this role.
