Broadway Oyster Bar in downtown St. Louis was buzzing with patrons on a recent evening. The venue has live music scheduled for nearly every night this month.
Officials in St. Louis and St. Louis County began relaxing pandemic restrictions on entertainment venues this week. But clubs and theaters won’t be filling up with patrons anytime soon.
Until this week, venues had been limited to 50% of their usual audience capacity. (That percentage was lower earlier in the pandemic.) St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones and St. Louis County Executive Sam Page
issued a joint order Monday removing the cap, as well as lifting an 11 p.m. curfew and a limit on large gatherings.

When singer Aloha Misho and rapper Rocky Knuckles combined forces in 2017, the two had no problem finding their creative groove. As the Knuckles, they created nearly 300 recordings together that first year alone.
Now some of those early songs, in addition to brand-new ones, will be released later this month on the group’s first album, aptly titled “Good Timing.” They describe their debut album’s vibe as joyous, aimed at combating the “spiritual lows” brought on in 2020.

“It s all about the greater good. A lot of time we think about the self and not the greater good. And so we re trying to talk to people about being selfless in a moment of extreme selfishness,” Knuckles said on Friday’s
