Guitar Center, NAMM Targeted In Pricing Lawsuit 2009 - Guitar Center & National Association of Music Merchants PRICE FIXING INSTRUMENTS, GUITAR & BASS

OH BOY...IT'S MUSIC MONDAY...
and Guitar Center is having a MANIC ONE!

Guitar Center, NAMM Targeted In Pricing Lawsuit
September 24, 2009 - Legal and Management

By Billboard staff

Guitar Center and the National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) are the targets of a recent lawsuit filed by law firm Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro which claims the two conspired to fix retail pricing on fretted instruments.

The firm filed a nationwide class-action lawsuit this week in U.S. District Court in California, according to a release on the lawsuit, which claims NAMM “organized meetings and programs where competing retailers including Guitar Center, were encouraged to discuss and agree upon strategies for price fixing along with other anti-competitive agreements with manufacturers.”

The lawsuit also claims defendants conspired to squash competition from online retailers by collectively threatening to boycott manufacturers who sell through online competitors, among other tactics.

The suit seeks to represent anyone who purchased a fretted musical instrument from Guitar Center between Jan. 1, 2005 and Dec. 31, 2007.

LENNY KRAVITZ & K'NAAN at THE ORPHEUM THEATER BOSTON, MA 10/21/09...CONCERT REVIEW by Boston Pop Superhero, Cookie Cutter Girl! FLY,American Woman

LENNY KRAVITZ at THE ORPHEUM THEATER
BOSTON, MA 10/21/09

Concert Review by Lynn Julian

K'naan was the apt opener, filling the half empty room with love and lyrics. See my previous concert review in this Blog, when they opened for Jason Mraz. (They've also been opening for Maroon 5 this year) All those who skipped their set missed out on some Rap-Reggae-Hip-Hop, hand wavin', free slavin', clean shavin' family friendly fun. This Bob Marley meets Run DMC and check 'em out here: http://knaanmusic.ning.com.

Last night, The Orpheum became the NoSeeUm as every guest rose in anticipation of the arrival of Lenny Kravitz...and never sat down until after he left. Why have chairs? As the Pop Star graced the Boston, MA theater stage, The Orpheum became the Orgyum, filling with screaming, sexual shrieks of pleasure from both male and female fans alike.

The Guitar Hero, who admits influence of Prince, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Wonder, Bob Marley, and the Beatles, filled his first set with 10 minute masturbatory solos for stoned by both himself and his tribe. Kravits grew up in LA, embraced by his parents’ iconic, musical friends such as Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, Ella Fitzgerald. The priceless influence of this priviledge obviously left its mark on young Lenny, as his band would not seem out of place backing any Jazz hound.

Leaving the best for last, the mystery man behind his self-branded Super Shades & heavy knit cap, filled his second set with his hit singles. By the time the hits happened, the beer battered battalion was fully loaded and ready for kravitz-eoke. As the crowd swayed and sang "Fly," I was well aware that many were high enough to do so. Oh yeah, the succulent scent "God's Green Medicine" filled the tiny theater as the 45-year-old pop rocker impolitely proclaimed "I gotta' take a piss...so you got 3 minutes to go roll another one." Call it his crude, rude "Rock Star" moment. I guess he's earned it with a performance covering his 20-year-plus career. This show celebrated the 20th anniversary of Lenny Kravitz' debut album, “Let Love Rule.’’

Bad Health Care Bill Penalizes Women: More Amendments Limiting Reproductive Health Care and Excessive Premium Rates for Older Women! BE A HERO

Bad Health Care Bill Penalizes Women: More Amendments Limiting Reproductive Health Care and Excessive Premium Rates for Older Women

Tell your senators -- health care reform can't restrict women's rights! After taking action, pleasesupport our work!

Action Needed:

Consideration of Senate Finance Committee Chair Sen. Max Baucus' (D-Mont.) proposed legislation to reform our broken health care system continues this week. Please send a message to your senators today urging them to oppose all restrictive amendments that would limit women's access to reproductive health care and to withdraw discriminatory provisions that would charge women (and men), aged 40 to 64, five times (!) the average premium amount charged to younger persons. Also, stress the need for the legislation to offer a strong public health insurance plan; Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-W. Va.) is set to soon offer an amendment that would establish a public health insurance plan.

Take action now!

Background:

The Senate Finance Committee is considering amendments this week to a bill that is the health insurance industry's dream legislation. NOW opposes this bill, primarily because it does not offer a public health insurance option and because there are many onerous and costly provisions. More than 500 amendments have been offered, including a number that would further restrict access to reproductive health services. Other parts of the bill would require unaffordable insurance plans, mandate coverage with penalties for persons without insurance, write age discrimination into law, require taxpayers to pay billions in subsidies to private health insurers and fail to include a public health insurance option -- something a majority of the public has said they want.

The amendments offered by opponents of women's reproductive health care include: restoration of abstinence-only education, adopting a conscience clause, no pre-emption of state laws regarding abortion, no federal funds for abortion and others. Abortion services is the one of the most common medical procedures provided in the U.S., yet these amendments attempt to further stigmatize and marginalize this component of basic women's health care. There may well be an effort to prohibit coverage of abortion services in all private health insurance plans.

Protect women's reproductive health care -- take action now!

Chairman Baucus and the insurance companies want persons aged 40 to 64 to pay an exorbitant amount for coverage -- arguing that it is this age group that needs more care and should pay more. Middle-age women might see themselves paying four or five times the amount a younger person is paying for coverage. The reason that insurers would like this enormous hike in premium amount is that they say they must recoup income to pay for their losses due to new prohibitions against dropping people for pre-existing conditions and for stopping higher charges for women because of maternity care. This 5:1 (other plans have 2:1) charge will result in unaffordable premiums for millions of boomers and billions of dollars that will have to be covered by taxpayers in the form of subsidies.

Add this gigantic subsidy to insurers along with the hundreds of billions in income from the 50 million formerly-uninsured new customers now mandated to buy private insurance and you're talking real money. It's clear that the insurance industry is calling the shots.

Send a message to your senators to oppose any further restrictions on women's reproductive health care, to withdraw a provision that would impose dramatically higher premium costs for middle-age women and men and to support a public health insurance plan.
