As one who favors truly live entertainment provided by bands like The Sixties, UBRS, Second Slice, Cactus Jack and others, I find it concerning that there may be a cost cutting initiative of this sort in the works.

I sent an email to the POA in hopes of eliciting some feedback regarding this and identifying a source for protesting or lodging a complaint if this is more than just a rumor. I would also be interested in joining any organized effort to insure high standards for entertainment in the squares.
Please keep us posted.....
