The simplest answer is usually the correct one....
...someone tripped over the plug, pulling it from the wallsocket.

yep trouble here as well. Maybe an update to the site but i wouldnt count on it just yet. I think they will keep that until 2009.

or they are moving over to the Live Nation servers
We can only hope this is something exciting and not that they didn't pay there server bill. 
I was in there this a little earlier, so it's definately something relatively recent.

I'm not a tech geek or anything, but I thought that changes could be made to the design of a site while its still live and just flip flop the new stuff with the old stuff at the appropriate time. No?

Yeah, I can't open it either on Firefox or IE
I was thinking the same thing, and also wondering why people assume that because the site is down, that some big news is coming. Websites go down all the time for many different reasons.
Don't know, but that's not what happened in 2004, the site actually did go down.

Thank goodness!! I'm glad I found this thread. I thought maybe my work caught on to me and was freezing me out. I'm a little paranoid. New stuff would be cool!!
Well... sorta. I've done this sort of thing in the past. If they're changing it up (I pray to God) they really need to lock down content completely for the duration of the transfer (even with pre-written code), and then they have to test it all... it's not as simple a pressing a button. Plus, if they're switching to new server (LiveNation), it can take several hours for that to propagate through DNS (and thus be visible to the world).

It's the Apple phenomenon. Whenever Apple's site goes down, it means they're introducing new products.

They're moving the site to geocities.
They're merging with Interference.
Orly? Please accept my letter of resignation.

it's probably down....Christmas eve (around 18h over there)...everybody's out celebrating and not working on fixing the site....if there are a lot of testing to implement\move a website, Christmas eve is probably one of the last date to do it on! Sorry but when it will be back,nothing will probably have changed!
