That will do wonders for acoustics and comfort.

I've been to the Kennedy Center several times over the past few years, most recently in January. Everything looked amazing. No crumbling facade, no out of order elevators or bathrooms.

People are crazy if they think the Kennedy Center was just sitting idle prior to Trump. All buildings undergo routine maintenance, and there were major renovations to the parking lot, concert hall, and opera house under Clinton and Bush, as well as a major expansion under Obama/Biden in 2014.

Ticket sales are down by almost 50%.

The programming seems pretty lame. Usually they have a big-name play once or twice per year. We've previously seen The Lion King, Rent, Book of Mormon, and Wicked there. There's nothing like that now.

It’s an entire program built on catering to people with culture and class and an appreciation for the arts. Now it’s probably just reruns of Hee Haw.

Who on Earth would be seen there?

No one is going to be running to see anything if they have to sit in seats with marble armrests. WTF.

“Issa Rae has canceled her sold out performance at the Kennedy Center. Pulitzer Prize winner Rhiannon Giddens, Peter Wolf, Low Cut Connie, and the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, D.C., have also canceled. Lin-Manuel Miranda has canceled the entire Kennedy Center run of Hamilton.”

Maybe they can book Nicky Minaj and Kid Rock

I drive past and feel sad. It once was a magical and beautiful place.

I didn’t realize the job description for American president is interior design. Dumb me, I always thought it was focused on bigger issues. Why doesn’t he do something helpful if he’s bored?

Cold, hard, and uncomfortable.
