    Given the purpose of the bridge itself and the state of the fan base how about

    Bridge Over Troubled Walkers?

    Wow he’s still touring, let alone still alive somehow?

    He's been remarkably prolific, releasing an album a year with ~100 city tours across Europe and NA. Usually would be in Santa Cruz in late May -my unofficial start of summer.

    Amazing. Of course I don't know if Trower is / was a partyer. It's even more amazing that guys like Keith Richards are still alive.

    Hah, I can still remember the "stoners" in my HS extolling the virtues of Robin Trower with soliloquies that went something like this:

    "Trower"

    https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/...rus-vaccine-indoor-mega-events-masks/2674851/

    "The updated COVID-19 safety guidance, which starts Sept. 20, requires proof of vaccination or a negative test within 72 hours of an indoor event with more than 1,000 people in attendance."

    "The changes will remain in effect until at least Nov. 1."

    LA County specific:
    "The updated health order expands that requirement to mega events held outdoors, like large festivals and concerts, unless eating or drinking.

    The county’s health order defines mega events as those with an attendance of 10,000 or more outdoors and 5,000 or more indoors. The updated order will become effective at 11:59 p.m. Thursday and includes music and food festivals, concerts at the Hollywood Bowl and elsewhere, and sporting events, such as games at Dodger and SoFi stadiums, LAFC games at Banc of California Stadium and LA Galaxy Games at Dignity Health Sports Park."

    Wonder if Santa Clara County or SJ Earthquakes would do the same.

    For outdoor events, LA County is mandating masks, not vaccines nor negative tests.

    "Congratulations! Your season tickets have been successfully renewed for the 2022 season! We processed your payment to secure your place at our home matches next year."

    :ROFLMAO: I guess recurring season tickets are default opt in? Don't recall being made aware of that. I'm OK with it, but it seems a little early to be taking the payment, and would have liked to have more notification before it actually happened - unless I missed that.

    Maybe it's another one of those "strike while the iron's hot" deals. The Quakes have an unbeaten streak and just had a big win against the Gals. Strike quick before the next crash! Where's the Kaval's Kickoff?

    They do the renewal drive around the same time every year - I think it hovers around the Stanford game (end of June) and the final cutoff is now I guess. Final cutoff just means they make your seats available for next year if you don't renew.

    I think everyone is defaulted to opt-in and you can opt-out by talking to your ticket rep.

    Thanks. I'm OK with it, just a little surprised.

    Are you talking about STH seats? I am pretty sure that in the past, ticketmaster has not allowed me to sell the Bonus games. I'm pretty lukewarm about watching the quakes play a ligamx team

    The Athletic had an article about safe standing making its return to English football. It included this photo, which I found very striking, but it includes seating, and the article didn't say which stadium this is. I tried using yandex, but couldn't find the image source. I'm thinking maybe this is a Russian stadium? Anyone know?

    Lol, looks more like a safe sitting area in that picture. Maybe the Chelsea fans needed an instruction sheet?:p

    "Safe standing" usually means that there are seats that fold back into a very flat vertical position at the back of each row, so that there is plenty of room to stand terrace-style, but there is a seat that can be used if the competition requires an all-seater venue. That also means that there's a place to sit before the game or during halftime.
