An unfortunately small number of venues which clearly would be in the public interest to be publicly-owned are actually publicly-owned. A huge percentage, in fact, are owned by the Ticketmaster vertically-integrated monopoly that forces entertainers to use their venues and scammy ticketing system (they enable scalpers so that they can get an extra cut) by threatening blacklisting of any who don't play ball.
