Don Pitts, manager of the City of Austin Music & Entertainment division – the office that issues permits for all official and unofficial South by Southwest events –confirmed Tuesday night that a permit request for Lady Gaga to play the Doritos Stage at SXSW 2014 was denied. For the last two years Doritos has built a giant vending machine in the parking lot of Carmelo's Italian Restaurant at 504 E Fifth Street in Downtown Austin. Last year the stage hosted a superstar hip-hop show with a lineup featuring L.L. Cool J, Ice Cube and Public Enemy. The vending machine is set to return to the same location but Lady Gaga and her "little monsters" will have to party somewhere else after the city determined that the venue could not sustain Gaga's level of talent and the crowds that she might draw.
Whew that sucks, I have to go through the pain of finding out she was potentially going to play but then got denied all at once.. I'll never see ha again
