Jeff Jack claims first music venue victim

So after reading a long set of complaints on the hydeparkaustin yahoo group(*) about the city not adequately enforcing code regarding to unrelated occupants in ‘McMansions’ in Hyde Park, tadalafil more about I posted the following to their group, view which was bland enough to make it through the moderator gauntlet:

I would suggest that if you want to be taken more seriously on this issue that you show the city where you WILL accept more housing units – such as the attempt by some on city council to make a ‘deal’ for VMU in place of McMansion development.
If, as has happened with Hyde Park and CANPAC, your VMU application was nothing but “no thanks” and, after the first shot was rejected, some desultory last-minute additions with plenty of conditions, don’t expect to be taken seriously.

And I got the following, in my email, this morning:

Mike, no one takes you seriously. You don’t speak for anyone but yourself and your constant criticisms of everyone who doesn’t buy into your fake “new urbanism” has alienated all but a few weak minded individuals like yourself.
Frankly, nobody wants you on the Hyde Park listserve.
Get a life loser!

In case anybody was wondering how Hyde Park stands. I hope you guys don’t blame me for your weak-mindedness!
(* – not technically my neighborhood but I’m one block away).
Update: Weak-minded commenter DSK unintentionally performs a great service. Sure, he gave away the method…

BUT BUT BUT! Now I know that there is a site called walterkoenig.com thanks to a surprisingly difficult effort to locate a picture of the method in question. I think we’re all richer for the experience.

Those of you who actually believed the nonsense about the live music task force regulations being the result of condo dwellers who didn’t like loud music ought to think long and hard about the fact that the first apparent casualty of the ordinance isn’t downtown; it’s in the area covered by Jack’s neighborhood associations, viagra approved just like I told you.
Excerpt from the post:

On Saturday, April 10, 2009, an APD officer arrived at Freddie’s at 7:15 pm and told us that he was there to check our decibel readings. Our ambient sound level (with no music playing) was 67 db. Our sound level with the band playing ranged from 74 db to 80 db. The officer explained that the 1st time out (this time), he would issue a warning. The next time we would receive a citation which would result in a $500 fine. He stated that the 3rd time they come out, they would take someone to jail.
This was “the day the music died” at Freddie’s. We immediately stopped the band and have subsequently cancelled 83 bookings which were already on the cards for 2009. The 83 bookings represent over 200 Austin area musicians who no longer have a gig at Freddie’s.
