“The police are looking into the causes of the rowdy scene at South Street Seaport in Manhattan on Tuesday night when a way-overcapacity crowd turned out for a free concert by the rapper Drake and the pop band Hanson…
…”We’re taking a hard look at it ourselves to see what the appropriate mechanisms or configuration of that area should be,” [Commissioner Raymond W. Kelly] said. “We want to look at how this particular event was promoted. We want to learn from this.”…
…[Paper Magazine’s David] Hershkovits said Paper was intending to put on more free shows at the Seaport this summer. (Other promoters are responsible for Seaport Music, another free series there.) One of the scheduled performers is Kesha, the pop singer whose song “Tik Tok” is one of the biggest hits of the year, having sold 4.9 million downloads.
“I don’t anticipate that happening for Kesha the same way,” Mr. Hershkovits said. “I don’t think this means anything more than what happened last night.” [NY Times]
