Music Concerts - It's also the singles market except maybe Singapore

According to the Music 3.0 blog, music fans in the US are favoring music festivals over regular single act concerts. Why? Festival match the new listening habits - music fans no longer listen to an entire album, they listen to singles. Quote: "There are usually multiple stages, so if you don't like one act, go find another that suits you."

That may be the case in US and Europe but in a music deprived country like Singapore, it's not necessary true. Recent music festivals that I know of only includes WOMAD, MOSIAC, SingFest & Baybeats and I seem to recall more concerts of artistes & bands, courtesy of eventful's weekly emails. In a country where it's hard to get large scale quality concert it's no wonder we're seeing old acts flying in to cash in on fans of yesteryears - old school mega hair rock outfit Firehouse comes to mind with their scheduled concert on this 30th June.
