Anti-Lockdown Evangelist Sean Feucht Had No Permit for Saturday's Concert on Austin Parkland

t looked like a secondary stage at ACL Fest. Saturday’s Let Us Worship concert on the shores of Lady Bird Lake saw hundreds of overwhelmingly maskless attendees amass for a performance led by touring missionary Sean Feucht. A rep for the Austin Center for Events says no permit had been issued for the gathering.

The acoustic guitar strumming Feucht, a California-based preacher and Republican politician who advocates against COVID-19 lockdowns, has been holding increasingly controversial Let Us Worship pop-up concerts since July. The first of his 2021 events was initially promoted to be held at Auditorium Shores last Saturday afternoon.

“We showed up this morning and Austin had barricaded the park we were in,” he explained in a social media video that day. “So we moved down the road, right next to the river at Edward Rendon Metropolitan Park and we’re ready, baby!”

The sight of a festival-style stage being erected on city parkland puzzled people using the hike and bike trail, given that Austin has been in Stage 5 restrictions for over two weeks and our health care system is projected to hit capacity, necessitating the opening of a field hospital at the Austin Convention Center.

1. This guy is a dangerous psychopath and a grifter. He needs to be run out of town.

He's an evil opportunist, fleecing his naive followers. He's no different from 45. I feel sorry for the idiots who drink his Kool-aid.

2. this is the same MO that this guy has used over and over

And, apparently, local authority does not care enough -- or is not willing to expend the resources to shut him down. (but there's absolutely no secret in how this game is being played. over and over.)
