Normal topicrecording location import from MusicBrainz

Trying to bring in recording dates and locations for things like 30 Days of the Dead from MusicBrainz. They are all well tagged there, but the information imported for the location is more detailed and granular than I would like.

For instance, on this release:
https://musicbrainz.org/release/7bfab286-4c26-4352-9dbc-07fc215b99ea

The first track was recorded at the Charlotte Coliseum. I'd like to import:

"Charlotte Coliseum, Charlotte, NC"

instead, I get:

Bojangles’ Coliseum (known as Charlotte Coliseum until 1988), 2700 East Independence Blvd, Charlotte, North Carolina 28205

which seems to come from: https://musicbrainz.org/place/dbb70e3c-3fdd-4f34-8d26-f20b89ca7601

Is there any way to simplify what comes in, so I don't get the complete address or former names?

Thank you, and for such an awesome program.

Sorry ... it's just a chunk of text. There is no way to automatically sub-divide it. Whatever they provide, I store.

The issue here is that I can't even provide an action to generalize it as according to the MB guidelines, its free form text.
