The state of the all-ages music scene is in a little bit of limbo right now, as there are some potential city ordinance amendments that will:
1. Require concert attendees to be age 16 and up.
2. Require venues to have $1,000,000 of insurance.
While I'm not sure how much that insurance costs, I do know that all ages venues don't really make much money, and mo' money = mo' problems.
And surely there are kids under the age of 16 that would like something as safe, fun and culturally benificial as enjoying live music. Seriously, this age limit makes no sense to me.
In anticipation of a rumble, the Public Safety Committee will be holding a meeting on Tuesday January 20 at 10:30 in City Hall Room 5A.
