Music Fest
Beale Street Music Festival brought thousands to Liberty Park this weekend for the first time in two years. But Nextdoor user Ben Nelson didn’t know.
“Lots of loud noise near the Liberty Bowl,” he wrote. “I didn’t think there were football games this time of year…. Anyone know what the heck is going on??”
Commenters answered the question many times, complained about the noise, complained they weren’t notified of the event, complained about the complainers, and, of course, complained about the redesign of Tom Lee Park.
Tweet of the Week
“I will be announcing my full intentions on buying MySpace tomorrow,” tweeted Mayor Prince Mongo.
Big Bad What?
News broke last week that a Nashville company bought Cooper-Young buildings now housing Mulan and Margaritas. Owners plan to install a Big Bad Breakfast restaurant where Mulan is now.
But Mulan responded on Facebook with this: “Big bad nothing but a sad rumor going around. Mulan isn’t going anywhere. Don’t you worry your pretty little heads.”
