Why Does KUT Think It Can Manage a Club?
RECEIVED Fri., April 30, 2010
Dear Editor,
Exactly what qualifications can anyone at KUT show regarding the rather complex skill set required to profitably manage a live concert venue ["Off the Record," Music, April 30]? People thinking like this are so far beyond clueless that it borders on satire. Perhaps the plan is to continue running a venue that needs subsidization. If that's the case, leave it alone, because it's already working fine. Chances that the operators of a publicly subsidized radio station have what it takes to profitably operate a live music venue are beyond anorexic.
