The Greek Theatre, one of Los Angeles’ most iconic outdoor concert venues, has been named in a sweeping new lawsuit by Trident Concert Productions, an independent concert promoter working with folk revival act The Kingston Trio. The lawsuit, filed by L.A. litigator Konrad Trope, accuses the building’s management company, ASM Global, along with Ticketmaster, Live Nation and the City of Los Angeles of orchestrating a corrupt system that shuts out independent promoters and leaves fans — particularly seniors — without access to concerts at the venue.

At the heart of the complaint is a claim that city officials and corporate partners have quietly undermined the Greek Theatre’s 2018 management agreement, which mandated the venue be run as an “open building” free from exclusive ticketing and promotion deals. Instead, Trident alleges that the city, in partnership with Ticketmaster and Live Nation, allowed a de facto monopoly over the venue, forcing promoters into arrangements that stifled competition and limited access for fans.

One of the lawsuit’s sharpest accusations centers not on pricing or antitrust, but on the failure to properly record two Kingston Trio concerts at the Greek on Aug. 17 and Aug. 18, 2024.

“Trident and the Trio’s intent was to produce a documentary concert film and a high-quality live concert album to accompany the film,” Trope said. “This concert was contracted with and to be distributed by BRI for worldwide distribution in theatres, television, and streaming.”

Trident paid $50,000 to secure the filming and performance dates for the concert, according to the lawsuit.

“During the first show, on the evening of August 17, 2024, the Trio’s entire Saturday show, critical to the ultimate success of Sunday’s show, was not recorded. Not a single second of performance was saved to any hard drives we provided damaging the potential for the documents,” Trope said. Two of the Greek’s employees allegedly never “checked to make sure that the necessary hard drives required to record the Shows were actually plugged in,” the lawsuit reads.

Despite that alleged failure to properly record the first concert, Trident claims it was presented with a $200,000 bill for filming and “delivering” the concert footage. It adds that a third-party contractor hired to run the show’s AV subsequently blamed venue staff at the Greek for failing to instruct them to record the show, despite being aware of Trident’s “intent to film and record both nights for a full-length feature documentary film to be released in 2025, in time for the Academy Award screening season.”

“There wasn’t even a backup protection track, the most basic element of all, produced either for the video or sound,” the lawsuit reads. “This was unprofessional to the maximum degree and reflective of the dismissive attitude that The Greek Theater displayed towards Trident and the Kingston Trio.“

The lawsuit claims this alleged failure was not an isolated oversight, but part of a broader pattern at the Greek Theatre, Trident says. By allowing concerts to proceed without proper record-keeping, the company claims, the venue’s management created conditions where outside promoters were left in the dark about how their shows performed financially. This lack of transparency, the suit says, effectively shields Ticketmaster and Live Nation from scrutiny while making it nearly impossible for independents to challenge their dominance.

For a band like The Kingston Trio, whose cultural legacy stretches back more than six decades, the complaint suggests that the Greek’s mishandling of the concert was more than a logistical slip. It was, in the words of Trident, “a breach of trust that denied artists and their audiences the integrity they deserve.”

The lawsuit accuses Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and the Department of Recreation and Parks commissioners of turning a blind eye to what it calls an “illegal financial arrangement” with Ticketmaster and Live Nation. These deals, Trident claims, not only sideline independent promoters but also discriminate against fans who cannot navigate Ticketmaster’s mobile-only ticketing platforms.

“Concert producers and live events at The Greek Theater that appeal to senior citizens are discouraged or suffer financial ruin if they are not contracted with Ticketmaster and Live Nation,” the filing alleges.

For Trident, the dispute is about more than market share. The company claims it made repeated attempts to stage shows at the Greek without Live Nation or Ticketmaster’s involvement, only to be shut out by the venue’s management and denied fair access to ticketing. When concerts did move forward, the lack of proper documentation and recording left promoters without the ability to track ticket sales or resolve disputes, the lawsuit says.

This, Trident argues, makes it nearly impossible for smaller promoters to operate successfully at a city-owned venue that should be run in the public interest.

Billboard reached out to officials with the Greek Theatre for comment, but did not receive a response by press time.

In May, Trident filed a separate lawsuit over The Kingston Trio’s Greek Theatre shows against L.A. attorney David A. Helfant, whom the band and promoter hired for his supposed inside connections at the venue. In that complaint, Trope wrote that in fact, “Helfant did not have expertise or the inside track or any superior knowledge about how to secure concert dates” at the Greek despite claiming that he did. Trope alleged that Helfant charged the band $650 per hour for his services and convinced it to spend $10,000 to hire a consultant to “grease the wheels” at the venue, though the group ended up booking the venue using the Greek’s own public booking process. Trope filed a petition to have the case dismissed in August after reaching a settlement.

Faith Evans has a message for parents raising kids with autism after President Donald Trump held a controversial press conference earlier this week where he linked autism to childhood vaccines and pregnant women taking pain medication with the active ingredient acetaminophen, like Tylenol.

TMZ ran into Evans in NYC recently, where she was asked her thoughts on Trump’s claims about autism because her 18-year-old son Ryder is autistic and the singer has been an outspoken advocate on his behalf.

“I’m not a doctor, I’m not a scientist, I’m not sure that Trump is either,” she said about the president’s claims. “I have to live it [and] walk the walk with my son every day, so until those things are proven, I don’t that it makes sense to get people up in arms, you know what I mean? Sometimes it can cause a little more fear or it can cause a little more doubt in people [by] just throwing misinformation. So, yeah, I don’t know. I can’t say one way or another.”

She was then asked if she had a specific message for parents like her, and she again reiterated to take Trump’s comments with a grain of salt until his claims are scientifically proven. “You mean regarding the Tylenol stuff? I don’t know what to say about that,” Evans said. “I would say: Don’t let it get you in a tizzy if it’s not proven, you know? We gotta live it every day, so just continue to fight the good fight for your kid or your adult that you’re caring for.”

Faith was also on the Tamron Hall Show recently, where she spoke about her experience raising her autistic son and to promote the inaugural gala for her nonprofit Ryder’s Room that happening this weekend in her hometown of Newark, New Jersey.

“I knew,” she said of her experience fighting to get a diagnosis from doctors before Ryder had turned 3 years old. “Having three children before he was born, I knew that he wasn’t meeting certain milestones — specifically language. And the doctor kept telling me to wait, every child is different, you know? And I’m like, I feel like he should be talking, he should be saying a couple of words by now. So I finally just begged enough so that he gave me a written diagnosis.”

She then added that after getting the diagnosis, she was confused as to what to do next, but other parents helped her along the way and she wants to pay it forward with Ryder’s Room.

“It can still kinda be a little bit confusing if you really don’t know what specifically is wrong with your child,” she admitted. “Every child is different, you know? It is a spectrum. So, yeah, I think it was more fear but with the help of other parents — thank God — who helped me early on, who became my first advocates … and then I wanted to do the same thing as I’ve grown and still learning and still navigating this walk but I’ve learned so much, and I just wanted to share that with other parents who just don’t know where to turn.”

The Ryder’s Room Inaugural Gala will be held Saturday (Sept. 27) at The Newark Museum of Art.

Tickets for the event are sold out, but you can make a donation to Ryder’s Room here.

Tekashi 6ix9ine has pled guilty yet again to breaching the plea deal he secured by testifying against his former Brooklyn gangmates, marking his third violation of supervised release in less than a year.

The rapper copped to the violation during a Thursday (Sept. 25) hearing in New York federal court. According to prosecutors, Tekashi (Daniel Hernandez) admitted that he attacked a man in a Florida mall last month after the man taunted him for flipping on his crew in return for leniency back in 2018.

The assault, a misdemeanor, runs afoul of rules that ban criminal offenders from violating the law again during their period of so-called supervised release. The 29-year-old rapper has repeatedly violated his supervised release in the last year, and Judge Paul A. Engelmayer ordered him to remain under house arrest until a final sentencing hearing on the violations in November, according to prosecutors.

Tekashi’s lawyer did not immediately return a request for comment on Thursday.

Once a rising hip-hop star, Tekashi was charged in 2018 with helping the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods gang as they “wreaked havoc on New York City.” But he quickly cut a deal with prosecutors to flip on his gangmates in exchange for leniency.

Under the terms of that deal, Tekashi was sentenced to just two years in prison and five years of supervised release. The rapper was released even earlier due to health risks associated with his asthma during the COVID-19 pandemic, and he began serving supervised release in 2020.

With just months left on the five-year supervised release, Tekashi was charged last November with committing a host of violations, including methamphetamine usage, failing to appear for drug tests and traveling to Las Vegas without permission.

Tekashi admitted to these violations, and Judge Engelmayer sentenced him to 45 days in jail plus another year of supervised release. Federal officers then found illegal drugs in his Miami home after he got out, and he pled guilty in July to another violation for possessing cocaine and MDMA.

The rapper was awaiting sentencing on the second violation when the Florida mall assault occurred in August.  He’s due back in court on Nov. 4.
