About 14 member of the olympia police department and the washington state patrol shut down an acoustic show taking place underneath the 4th avenue bridge this thursday at around 8pm. This was the second acoustic show to be shutdown in the past two days. Officers at the scene told the concertgoers they were tresspassing. One officer told the concertgoers to pick up the trash or, "the last one to leave gets ticketed for littering." It was unclear to me if the trash the officer was referring to was from the small crowd or not. Bridge shows have been happening for the last several years. In the past I have only seen police officers come down to make sure people were not tagging the bridge. Kicking people out for tresspassing appears to be a new trend.

From a "this is a small city" stance: I would expect to see less tolerance on the part of local law enforcement toward underground activities in response to the Capital Playhouse vandalism.
