McManus Withdraws Lawsuit

Australian promoter Andrew McManus has withdrawn his lawsuit against Dunedin Venues Management Ltd.

The company charged a NZ$50,000 ($39,740) cancellation fee after Fleetwood Mac, which was supposed to play its Forsyth Barr Stadium through McManus Entertainment, switched promoters to Live Nation and was booked in to play the groupโ€™s only NZ show in Auckland.

McManus confirmed that Dunedin Venues Management reduced the fee to $15,000 ($11,920), and that he had accepted it โ€œto avoid long-term legal fees and so I can walk away from this.โ€
