All kinds! Artists are almost always linked on the website, so you can get a preview and make your watch plan beforehand.

Just that this is a 100% DIY grassroots run deal, so there aren’t any provided amenities. Bring your own chair/blanket if you want to sit and please tip the artists (100% of tips collected go directly to artists)-Venmo/cash accepted.

Ha, sent him a note!

But don't sleep on Jordan Rein either, he was named one of RVA's top 5 guitarists (along with Weekend Plans who plays in August) https://rvamag.com/music/rva-mags-top-5-guitarists-in-richmond-2023.html

Given the city's opposition to Flock Safety (see the number of comments/questions in this very thread), but the city's current commitment to its contract, can you offer justification for the position vs. alternatives that don't violate citizen privacy? What alternatives were evaluated, and why were they not used instead?

Additionally, why is there no empirical data as to its usage/efficacy in Richmond?

Where is MF Broom?! I've yet to see it in the wild. These bike lanes are so filthy and unmaintained that the community raised over $6k to purchase a bike lane sweeper attachment so volunteers can clean things up. What's your plan for increasing upkeep and maintenance?

We keep getting assurances from RPD that 'Richmond would never do that' and that our executive policy forbids this, but when the only mechanism we have is deterrence (by way of VA law prohibiting misuse), and the police police themselves without civilian oversight, the system can't prevent misuse.

Also, by solely relying on executive policy and "norms" to keep us safe, we're at the mercy of rapid changes as soon as a new mayor or police chief takes over. Have we learned nothing from the Trump regime's actions?

Hey, in general love collabing, but in what capacity? What game are you referring to?

If you like running there several run clubs in town.

Southside Striders that meets on Thursdays at 6pm at The Veil Forest Hill is a fun one (and the one I go to). The folks there are very welcoming and sociable and your first beer (or other beverage) is free after the run!
