No Summer Nights this year

Posted By colin On February 28, 2006 @ 1:30 pm In music | Comments Disabled

The P-I is reporting ^[1] that One Reel ^[2] has cancelled this year’s Summer Nights ^[3] concert series.

Details are still sketchy, but apparently One Reel was prevented from moving the show to Gasworks Park as planned due to neighborhood protests. Specifically, a neighborhood organization called “Friends of Gasworks Park” apparently filed a lawsuit that prevented One Reel from finalizing arrangements, claiming they didn’t do sufficient ‘environmental impact” study.

Understandable concerns? Or classic NIMBYism?
