Lollapalooza to Pay More in Restructured Deal with the City

Looks like Lollapalooza and the city restructured the deal to everyones benefit(minus the concert goers) according to the Crain's Chicago:
A new agreement between the Chicago Park District and concert organizer C3 Presents will keep Lollapalooza in Chicago through at least 2021, and require C3 to pay millions in amusement and liquor taxes for the first time. It also will increase the ticket prices to concertgoers, according to Charlie Jones, co-owner of the Austin, Texas-based concert promoter.
Glad everyone is getting paid. Just wish it wasn't at my expense.
