While this next Tyear may prove more challenging in the wake of Hurricane Flor- ence’s widespread destruction and tour disruptions, especially in eastern North Carolina, insiders say the outlook is still bullish for the region as a whole. Cities throughout this part of the Eastern Seaboard are experi- encing downtown renaissances from Atlanta to Charleston and Charlotte, not to mention many of the communities in between. This has not gone unnoticed by the entertainment industry, which is booking an ever-widening array of acts to stand out in what’s become a very crowded and com- petitive market for venues. CROWDED HOUSE Many venue operators say the recent venue-building boom has made it more dicult to book tours and has created nontradi- tional competitors in the process.
