It is rumored that Roseland Ballroom will be closing in April of 2014. Roseland Ballroom is a historic landmark that should be preserved and protected in accordance with the history of The City of New York.
Why is this important?
Roesland Ballroom has been part of New York's history since 1919 evolved from ballroom dancing in the 20's to the music of today. It has featured revered musicians and artists in the genres of Rock, Disco, Grunge, Modern Rock, Jam, Pop, Urban, and Electronic Music. Everyone from The Rolling Stones to Madonna has graced the stage of this venue. To this day, Roseland Ballroom is still a highly trafficked and sought out venue hosting live concerts and events.
The closing of this venue will be a huge loss to the city of New York and changing Roseland Ballroom into anything but a live music venue will prevent patrons from revisiting its history. Roseland Ballroom needs to stay open in order to be able to be remembered for its history that spans over 90 years.
Please sign this petition in order to keep Roseland Ballroom open and preserving one of New York's treasured Art & Musical landmarks!
