Stadium Lifts Seating Ban for Bruce

A note for the kids... Cincinnati has long had a ban on general admission or "festival" seating. There's a good reason for it; in 1979, eleven people were trampled to death at a Who concert there, trying to get in to get the best seats.

Bruce Springsteen has asked the city to allow GA seating for his concert Nov. 12, and they have agreed. And they're thinking about making it permanent. I'd guess that the Boss' fans generally are a well behaved bunch. But what happens if they lift the policy for one of those rap-metal groups the kids listen to? Or whatever the kids are listening to. I haven't liked any popular music since 1991.
