BMO Harris Bradley Center in Milwaukee has brought on a new director of Booking. Doug Johnson, a co-founder of agency Pursuit Live, has played a key role in shaping the lineup for Summerfest since 2001. He has been hired for the newly-created role to help turn around the arena's concert business. The 26-year-old facility hosted three major music tours last year. Johnson will continue to work on this year's Summerfest with Pursuit Live through July 6, and will also continue to work with his Pursuit Live partners on Yellow Phone Music Conference in September.
