What's the story with this? They supposedly broke ground in January but every time I drive by Horizons Parkway and 635 in Riverside I see no progress (or can even tell exactly where it's going to be).

Its moving forward - Phase 1 was to build the surcharge pad - due to the crappy soil. Surcharge wont be completed until September... Phase 2 which is some parking lots should begin shortly and Phase 3 the actual Amphitheater won't start until Mid September.

Will this put Sandstone out of business?

Live Nation being sued by the DOJ may but an end to their vertically integrated promotion, ticketing, and venue owner/operator business model.

They may be forced to make changes but they won’t be forced to change their business model. AEG/ASM does the same thing with AXS.

I believe the articles said Ticketmaster spin off is the likely request.
