Name: Nicolas Robertson on Feb 5, 2007Comments: The city of boston is known to be one of the most culturally rich places in the country. The thriving music scene is and always has been one of the strongest aspects of that. This ban coming into effect puts damper on the already scarred club circuit and paves way for the slow downfall of live events in this city. This should not go un-fought!

Name: Anonymous on Feb 5, 2007Comments: it's pathetic that you want to control all the venues because of one incident. you're putting more youth out there on the streets. how about just making 18+ shows/venues non-drinking either way it's a loss of revenue and even more importantly you're letting kids be bored and get into more mischief in the streets.Flag

Name: Anonymous on Feb 5, 2007Comments: As a music industry professional who has worked for booking agencies, you have no idea the effect this has on the Boston music scene and our ability to put on and promote shows. Also, this is punishing the kids that spend the most time at these shows, rather than parties drinking themselves to death. Its called a "bar fight" for a reasonn, not a show fight.Flag

Name: Chris B on Feb 5, 2007Comments: What brought on this measure to restrict these all-ages shows for youth in Boston and surrounding communities The negatives seem to outweigh the positives here. Wow, being under 21 and from a Boston suburb, this new ruling has prevented me from spending money in the city and state on gas, parking, city subways, restaurants, venue tickets and more. Sounds like a great economic move on the part of the Consumer Affairs and Licensing department. I'm confused and upset by the actions of City Hall to restrict the arts in the city of Boston. All-ages venue shows give individuals under the age of 21 a controlled atmosphere for recreation, whereas without them frustrated youth may find other more delinquent means to spend their nights. In whatever context you put it, this is a major step backward for the city of Boston.Flag

Name: Anonymous on Feb 5, 2007Comments: We stand together infuriated by your decision to end 18+ shows in Boston. After all of our city's preaching of its efforts to keep kids off the streets, you take away our best option of controlled entertainment. We will not be treated like second hand citizens. We are expected to be responsible enough to be sent to war, yet you can not offer us the chance to exercise our responsibility at a simple show, within a controlled environment. This is a persecution of our city's musical culture, and we will not stand idly by while you try to take away from us what makes our city so great. Our numbers are strong, our voice is powerful, and we will not be overlooked.Flag

Name: Linda on Feb 5, 2007Comments: Although I understand the need for tighter security at due to recent events, the solution is not to persecute the youth of this city by banning them from music shows. As this city refuses to release any further details about the incidents that occurred and is simply forcing this ruling upon the people it is difficult to understand why exactly this is happening and what makes the leaders of Boston feel that this is the best course of action. As a resident of Boston and a college student under 21, I strongly urge the city to either re-evaluate its decision regarding this matter.Flag

Legislation like this is a slap in the face to bands like Aerosmith and the Bosstones who would have been prevented from getting their starts here under it. Don't take away an important part of this city's culture.Flag
