Flemming Schmidt

We are extremely sad to hear of the death of Flemming Schmidt, who died on Saturday, Feb 16th. We understand that he had been suffering from cancer. Flemming was the head of Live Nation’s operation in Denmark. Before that he was well known as one of the two main partners of DKB – a promoting company that he began in the early 70’s with Steen Mariboe – and was responsible for the majority of major shows to take place in Denmark. Flemming was one of the founders of the modern live music industry, and his death is a huge loss to us all. Our sympathies go to his wife, Mette, and his three children.
