VACATION SUITORS

PageSix reports Sony/ATV chief Marty Bandier was being courted nonstop while on holiday in Anguilla recently, with "a host of folks interested in chatting about the potential sale of his multi-billion-dollar business," and noted that Jeffrey Katzenberg, MSG’s Jim Dolan, Irving Azoff, Allen Grubman, and Ron Perelman were also on the island. Despite emails hacked from Sony Studios suggesting the publishing wing could be up for sale, the company says there are no plans to cash in. Bandier is set to be the first music publishing executive honored by the Grammy's when he receives The Recording Academy's President's Merit Award next month, and Sony/ATV writers dominate the nominations in both Record and Song of the Year categories. No matter what happens, it looks like Marty's winning. Again. Oh, and we're told Sea Spray at the Sandy Ground is a good source for quality cigars.
