Fernandina Friends, live music downtown is being threatened by an old city ordinance that’s about to be changed. We (as in workers of the music/bar/restaurant industry) need your help in our struggle to keep live music alive downtown.

We’re asking all supporters of live music to meet at City Hall, this coming Tue. Mar. 16th at 5pm for the commissioners meeting.

Feel free to dress up, make signs, sing songs and have fun!!
​Let’s celebrate and show the commissioners what live music means to this community.

See you Tuesday.
City Hall, y’all.
5pm

For me personally, protest is a celebration.  No doubt, it is something that I am passionate about.  I have found that good music is essential.  Positive Energy, good music, art and comedy are all great strategies that can compel others to join the movement/active resistance.

For me, making signs has always been something I'm passionate about.  I love turning on some good music (everything from old Gospel music to Rage Against The Machine) driving around town dumpster diving for cardboard (which I usually find behind a strip mall) and spending the day making 20 - 40 signs for folks to enjoy at the protest.

Protest is a celebration of our 1st Amendment Rights.  Protest is sacred.  Protest is one of the things that led to the establishment of the Nation we currently occupy.  When Protest is positive, upbeat, clear, and non violent; it can be a very effective weapon to creating change.
