Here’s How Ultra, EDC and Other Music Festivals Impact Airbnb Prices
Many of us have experienced the immense frustration of attempting to book travel accommodations for a massive music festival. But how much extra are we spending in comparison to those who travel to the same destinations on any given day? A new study from money.co.uk analyzed just how much extra we spend on Airbnb accommodations during music festivals. While the results may not be shocking, they’re fairly eye-opening for those who haven’t thought twice about how much profit there is to be had from an Airbnb booking during festival season. This year’s edition of Ultra Miami has caused a 19.1% surge, increasing the average Airbnb price from $456 to $543. However, Ultra surprisingly ranks 18th in a total overall increase in comparison to other major fests. Hardwell perfo...

DREAM THEATER’s JAMES LABRIE Lashes Out Over Lip-Sync Allegations: ‘F**k You’
DREAM THEATER singer James LaBrie has pushed back against allegations that he uses pre-recorded vocal tracks during live performances. The rumor that LaBrie has been relying on pre-recorded backing tracks gained strength last month after fan videos of DREAM THEATER‘s current North American tour were shared on YouTube. Some fans have pointed specifically to the post-chorus of the DREAM THEATER song “Bridges In The Sky” where the alleged lip syncing occurs. LaBrie finally addressed the Internet chatter during DREAM THEATER‘s concert this past Friday (March 18) at Bayou Music Center in Houston, Texas. He told the crowd: “I’m gonna fucking clarify something for you now, okay? People have been saying I’m fucking lip syncing? Fuck you. Fucking, what is w...
