Read <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newsobserver.com\/102\/story\/476463.html\">http:\/\/www.newsobserver.com\/102\/story\/476463.html<\/a> for a more complete story.<\/p>\n<p>    Today, Weaver Street Market and Carr Mill Mall put out a press release with their &#8220;solution&#8221; to this PR fiasco: a new program called &#8220;Live on the Lawn.&#8221; These scheduled events will feature performers who apply at Weaver Street Market and are &#8220;approved&#8221; by Carr Mill.  The press release says there &#8220;will be a limit of one performance per week per artist or group.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>    Personally, I don&#8217;t dance once a week.  I dance when I want to.  I want Bruce to dance when and where he wants to.  Please come help us make this point: <strike>TOMORROW,<\/strike> <b>TODAY<\/b> Wednesday, August 23, 5:30 pm.<\/p>\n<p>    Bring instruments.
