Live Nation, the region's largest purveyor of outdoor summer concerts, is offering some discount specials to ease the economic sting of a night out. "We've tried to be responsive," says Don Law, president of Live Nation New England, of the specially priced four-packs of tickets and "recession rocker" rates available for more than 30 shows at the Bank of America Pavilion and Comcast Center.

Here's a short sampling of such offers. (For a full list, go to www.boston.com/ae/music/blog.)
