Stop for a moment and think about this: The first Newport Jazz Festival was held during the presidency of Dwight Eisenhower. When a concept has staying power like that, there must be something strong about it. In fact, this year’s festival is going on the road in a celebration of its 60th year.

I’m going to have a lot more to say about how to build successful, long-term live entertainment businesses here on Selling Out in the near future, but 60 years of success makes its own powerful point. Congratulations, folks.
