    So, are First Ave and other smaller venues going to survive this thing? Reality is setting in for me that a LOT of smaller places, not just venues, aren't going to be able to reopen ever. My local record store just opened back up, but I don't think he's going to make it.

    Man I sure hope so.  Those are my favorite places to watch shows at.

    As long as they play St. Paul and not Mpls. Not sure I'd want to visit an unpoliced city. I guess my last show at First Ave was actually my last show at First Ave.

    Going to concerts and sporting events will be last among the things to resume in society.  Concert venues will need financial help in the meantime, either through government assistance, or concertgoers.  Can you buy some merch right now since you’re not spending money on tickets currently?

    Who's talking about defunding? Last night, the city council agreed to disband. If I'm wrong, then please, educate me.

    Are you implying that I haven't been doing so already? What gives you that idea? I'm not buying those ugly Vans though.

    You are incorrect, disbanding does not mean there will be no police. Please do your own research instead of relying on those of us on a PJ forum to educate you on the topic. 1 example is Camden, NJ where homicides dropped dramatically after the police were disbanded.

    Whoa...easy there tiger.  I just made a general comment about what people could do during these times.  It wasn’t directed negatively towards anybody.

    It does if they do not replace them. And what research would you like me to do, considering that this just happened last night and no one (as of my post) knows what's going to happen? Just b/c Camden disbanded and then rebuilt from the ground up doesn't mean that Mpls. will. Maybe it's better to talk to fellow level-headed Minnesotans than try and sort through all the fake news that's out there? If it's that much of a bother to reply to me, go ahead and block me and you'll never have to again.

    Defund means to divert money into other agencies. Disband means cease to exist. Far from the same thing. It could mean what I imply, we simply don't know yet. Or maybe they do know now, as I haven't checked the news in a while. It came from people shouting they don't want police in their city anymore, followed by said disbanding of the MPD, with them stating it was too late for reform.

    Still not accurate.  Disband literally means to disband the current organization.  Defund is part of that process.  Your stated implication that Minneapolis will not be safe for a show because there is not a police force is incorrect.
