Big facts! Funding and the current status of small businesses staying a float are major factors. However, I don’t think that corporations are the only source for being able to afford to throw sizey festivals. Ideally, there must be a way to do it locally. I know the financial backing is thing, but with sponsors and enough small businesses behind it-it can happen. May take a few years to grow but we can start somewhere and I think that’s with the people, patrons, supporters, and those involved with the Charleston music scene. We don’t have enough people that view it like that. Unfortunately there’s more people in Charleston here to retire, vacay, and spend money-than there is people that actually care about what’s going on with the city. Curmudgeons.

I feel the community has grown alot, however there are so many pinnacle musicians and bands that are uprooting post Covid so it’s far from consistent enough to make a change how we need it.

ahhhhhh I just hate it. Too much potential in the city. Laid to waste by the Charleston debutante society and the money grubbing  top hats of the city.
