Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
The ongoing concert promotions battle in Denver just became a little more heated. Just received word from Live Nation that Eric Pirritt has been named Vice President of Booking. Pirritt joins fellow VP of Booking, Peter Ore, and will now go head-to-head with his former associates at AEG Live, vying to bring the hottest shows to Denver. Prior to joining Live Nation, Pirritt was talent buyer for AEG Live and previously handling booking duties for the Fox Theatre and promoted shows independently with his own firm, ENDIT!
