Kennedy Center threatens to sue musician who canceled concert after Trump's name added to building

Good luck with that.

You honestly believe they won't seek damages in such an obvious case of breach of contract? Good luck with believing liberals are above the law in the Trump administration.

 

[Rawley]

One has to note the irony of noting it was a political stunt.

One that is going to cost Mr. Redd some big bucks.

"Hi! I'm Tommy The Taint! And I'm completely off my chain! I live in a failing country but have the temerity to criticize Donald Trump, one of the few leaders on Earth who has the balls to fight the Leftist agenda."

 

[Rawley]

I think a million is a lot to claim Why dont they put on some wrestking for the maga crowd ?

Because the defendant canceled less than a week before the event.

Kennedy Center threatens to sue musician who canceled concert after Trump's name added to building

Richard Grenell, the venue's president, called Chuck Redd's decision to cancel a Christmas Eve concert a “political stunt” and said he would sue for $1 million in damages.

Ordinarily I would say that they had an arguable case. As with most trump grifts he is just looking for a payout.
However the trump gimp making the case seems to be out of touch with reality.
You cant get compo for poor ticket sales. Tickets sell or dont at the whim of the public. Thats just the risk you take.
In fact the artist could argue that the name itself is off putting and people of culture re unllikely to want an association with a racist cult.
The Klan Pavillion is unlikely to pack em in.

Good.

How many times can you replay "A Birth of the Nation"?

Another elitist leftist circle jerk bites the dust.

Wanting and getting are two different things.

 

[Rawley]

Wanting and getting are two different things.

Pretty much a slam dunk. WHat's his defense? "I think Trump is a poopyhead?"

 

[jknowgood]

There is a huge amount of reputational damage in being linked with trump.

Just from you loons.

Are you surprised to learn breaking a contract results in penalties?

Of course you are, you're retarded.

 

[Marener]

I wouldn’t perform for those trolls.

What penalties ?

 

[marvin martian]

What penalties ?

You're too dumb to try to explain this to. Just trust me that breaking the terms of a contract has consequences.

Redd has a strong defense: he signed a contract to perform at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. If the institution changed its identity and name days before the show, Redd could argue the "Trump-Kennedy" rebranding was a material change to the terms of the agreement, giving him a legal right to withdraw.

 

[Conservative from Georgia]

Trump is a genius.

Getting the left to cancel their own programs!

Genius I tell you.

This was a program of the right. They wanted him to play. He will not cancel for the left.

Actually, this is on obvious case of frivolous lawsuit. They have to prove people would’ve paid $1 million extra solely for this guy to play a jazz song.

Secondly, the artist signed up to play for a company by a different name: The Kennedy center. They changed their name, so contract void.

He could argue that the name change was illegal. That would be relevant.
