1. Chattanooga is relatively small.
2. We have a plethora of mediocre acts, and many acts—especially many of our better acts—simply play too often.
3. Chattanoogans are spoiled by many, many free shows.
4. We live close to Atlanta, Nashville, Knoxville, and Birmingham—cities Chattanoogans are willing to travel to in order to see acts they REALLY want to see. They also often save their money for these trips, which means they are not spending it to see shows in town.
5. People find better entertainment options at home.
(This post was partially inspired by Hellcat’s article in last week’s issue of the Chattanooga Pulse.)
