The Hologram Holocaust: Talk of The Town

Published: May 11, 2012, midnight

Well all know that in today's times, the music business is severely suffering. Subpar music from artists, aligned with illegal downloading has caused a major decline in the sales of recorded music. Live performances and touring have become the last stand for artists. In an effort to capitalize on this still vibrant avenue, labels introduced a multi-rights or 360 deal model to the business. Recently at the famed Cochella Music Festival, a eerily realistic hologram of late rapper Tupac Shakur performed in front of a crowd of thousands. Due to the success of the concert there have been talks of a Tupac resurrection tour. On tonight's episode of Talk of the town with Nick Eden we will discuss how this hologram works, how many other tours are being planned,  and how this will effect the touring revenue of artists today.
