Big acts hard to draw to state fair
Alan Jackson and other top country artists have become costly targets for the Kansas State Fair. Chesney and McGraw command high fees, while Jackson declined a $300,000 offer. Weather and venue costs complicate booking as fairs weigh insurance against profits. ZZ Top and others headline the 2005 lineup with tickets going on sale April 9.
