Singer Bon Iver won't be playing any regular theatre for one of his next concerts, instead he'll be playing at Hollywood's Forever Cemetery.
The Bon Iver concert is being held in the Forever Cemetery, and for $25 includes midnight admission to the cemetery, breakfast and the 6 am concert. Sleepovers with hundreds of random people, breakfast and sleeping in a cemetery... interesting new idea for keeping concerts fresh at the very least.
Implications - The entertainment industry is under constant pressure to continually provide fans with the latest and newest form of artistic expression. Unique locations, routines and guests are examples of how performers keep things fresh. Businesses can adopt the same concept of constant reinvention in order to attract consumers.
