In October, Texas Governor Greg Abbott issued an executive order allowing venues to host indoor events up to 75 percent of capacity, with tables of up to 10 people.
Houston Chief Medical Officer David Persse described safety protocols for hosting special events, which included six feet of physical distance, wearing a mask, temperature checks and a wristband appropriate once guests have been marked as symptom free.
The owners of the Spire nightclub, who also own Saturday’s venue, Cle, came under fire for a Lil Baby concert in late November after a video of patrons was released shoulder to shoulder without a mask.

An operator responded to the situation by text message telling ABC 13:
“We were below our legal occupancy rate. Every night we strive to keep people socially distant. Once Lil Baby (Wednesday night’s headliner) started playing, people got out of their seats and rushed forward, so we had to cut the gig off.
The rapper who rose to fame as “Lil Bow Wow” in the early 2000s at the tender age of 13, has lost a lot of credibility as an artist, with many tweets acknowledging that he is little almost irrelevant in the musical space.
After waking up to the headlines of his performance, the rapper took to Twitter to try to defend himself, although he quickly deleted them on Saturday.
At 2:30 p.m. he wrote, “I just woke up… aww my God. Here we go, ”with the laughing cry emoji.

One user attempted to defend the rapper and said, “We’ve had enough of these covid bulls, people have to and want to get out of the house,” to which Bow Wow replied “okay”.
He tried to evade any wrongdoing by quickly pointing out that “Texas is open,” as well as Atlanta. “I can’t help but live in a city where we’ve been open since last spring.
