225 article
In an article about a new guy taking over as director of Live After Five, 225 managed to make sure to tie the decision to not spend money on good bands as being due to not having funds now that St George is a reality.

According to Lognion, he wanted to grow Live After Five with bigger sponsors and more regional and national acts, but the board wanted to go in a different direction. “The board is wanting to go back to its roots of celebrating local Baton Rouge bands. … I respect the board’s decision to do that, but that’s not what I was hoping to do,” Lognion said. Lauren Lambert Tompkins, board president of Live After Five, has cited budget cuts resulting from the incorporation of St. George as the reason for the shift in focus away from more costly touring acts and toward local talent.

So, the unincorporated parish was subsidizing BR’s entertainment?

An Independent school district could have prevented this outcome

BR is getting everything it deserves for electing incompetent idiots for so long that the citizens had enough and broke away.

The existence of St George is entirely the doing of Broome. LOL. Bitch lost the St George election, court cases, and her own election. Love it.

No, it’s not. It’s entirely the doing of the people who blocked the school district and told them they had to be a city. Broome wasn’t mayor then.

Broome was in the legislature at the time, and she literally was the one who blocked their attempts to form an independent school district outside of incorporating a city.

I'm surprised it's not all rap acts

And ironically she was the legislator that told the St George people they needed to be a city first in order to get a school district.

The crap that live After Five loses will pale in comparison that the goodness that St, George will offer.

When the massive commercial development is built on Airline, we will just host our own concerts.
Posted on 4/9/25 at 9:13 pm to 3BlockUber
The list for the upcoming Live After Five concerts looks identical to previous years.

Good, maybe it will cut down on the amount of people that go. Nothing is more fun than trying to leave work downtown to go to your St. George home, and having to dodge the crazy’s that show up for that shite.
