WESTON HEBERT GETS VP STRIPES AT AEG

AEG Presents is welcoming veteran talent buyer Weston Hebert as its new VP of Global Touring, a role in which he will be based in Nashville and report to President of Global Touring Rich Schaefer.

Hebert comes to AEG from Live Nation, where he served as a buyer for the Great Lakes region at such venues as Cincinnati's Andrew J Brady Music Center, ICON Festival Stage and Bogart's and The Bluestone in Columbus.
