LiveNation banner spelling boo boo

One of my favorite pastimes these days is using my cameraphone to snap pictures of poorly worded, poorly spelled, and otherwise absurd signs, then post them to a Flickr set.

I guess my inner copy editor is primed, because I caught a funny boo boo on a banner ad at a major print periodical's web site today (I won't say which one). LiveNation is running ads for a "Jakon Dylan"
show; I guess being the largest concert promoter in the world, with a $1.2 billion market cap, means you can afford to piss off rock stars by misspelling their names (and probably undermining ticket sales).
