END OF ALL AGES SHOWS IN WASHINGTON
This an from a post dated December 20, 2006. I did check the status though and there was a committee hearing on February 13th of this year. I have not been able to find any follow-up information with respect to the outcome of this hearing.
There is a new bill proposing changes to the State of Washington Liquor laws. There are many horrible ideas in it, the worst being the elimination of all ages shows at venues with alcohol. This means no more all ages shows at the Showbox, Chop Suey, Neumo's, Hell's Kitchen, etc.
This must be stopped. Mayor Greg Nickels can greatly influence this by opposing it. Make sure he does by writing him at http://www.seattle.gov/mayor/citizen_response.htm and Jordan.Royer@Seattle.Gov, james.keblas@seattle.gov and RmLaBelle@seattle.gov
You also need to write the liquor board - wslcb@liq.wa.gov and their lead on this, Pam Madsen -
and write your State representatives http://www.leg.wa.gov/legislature/ - this is VERY important.
Supposedly, Seattle City Attorney Tom Carr is behind this, probably working with the Seattle Police who have wanted to stop all ages shows since the 1980's.
write to Tom Carr here - thomas.carr@seattle.gov
more info on the bill will be posted at http://seattlenma.org/news/index.php
