How can we get big-name music acts to play here?

The list of big musical acts skipping Cincinnati in their most recent tours is long and getting longer. Taylor Swift, Justin Timberlake, Pink, Ed Sheeran, Coldplay, Madonna and The Eagles skipped Cincinnati in the past two years, according to Travis Jackson, marketing director of local ticket broker 333Seat.com. "They won't come here," he said, noting top-tier acts want top-tier arenas.
