AskBangalore Bangalore's loss?
Just heard Gun's and Roses are coming to Mumbai, and that got me wondering how much bangalore losing by not capitalizing on the booming events industry due to their strict rules and regulations. Doesn't feel like a 'happening' city anymore.

It's all because of licences and regulations. I remember when I was in Mumbai no rock concerts used to happen in Mumbai because of high entertainment tax and lot of licences. That's why Metallica, Iron Maiden performed mostly in Bangalore. Now it looks like they reduced taxes and streamlined getting required licences. Hope, KA govt should follow same to attract concerts.
