Been living here 20 years and its never been this hard to just go for a picnic. Give the park back to the people.
The common is for everyone not just for big events that block off the grass for weeks. Let us walk our dogs in peace again.
The muddy mess left after these shows is an eyesore. Why are tax dollars subsidizing private profit makers at our expense?
STOP LOCKING US OUT! The common belongs to the city not the promoters.
Keep the concerts out of the park. It ruins the ground and stops us from actually using the space for what it was meant for.

Ridiculous that we have to pay to use our own public park when a concert is on. Tired of being pushed out of my own neighborhood.
