Editing Go-go (section)

===2010s===
In the late 2000s and early 2010s, it became harder for go-go bands and local venues to hold concerts as law enforcement in both Washington, D.C., and neighboring [[Prince George's County]] in [[Maryland]] viewed the concerts and bands as inciters of violence.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/dec/18/pg-ordinance-cracks-down-on-clubs-beset-by-violenc/|title=P.G. cracks down on clubs beset by violence|date=December 18, 2011|newspaper=[[The Washington Times]]|access-date=September 21, 2017|language=en-US|archive-date=September 21, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170921095900/http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/dec/18/pg-ordinance-cracks-down-on-clubs-beset-by-violenc/|url-status=live}}</ref> New go-go music is still being produced, but remains local to the area, depending on live shows to share its full effects. There was 1 case however, where a band reached a mainstream level of success at this time. The band [[Rdgldgrn]] fused Indie Rock and GoGo together garnering the attention of a major label and getting signed around this time. Their first album featured production from [[Pharrell Williams]] and Guest Drumming from [[Dave Grohl]]. They toured the world and used the gogo sound in a new way that began to open the door for other bands to bring it to a mainstream rock audience.

Otherwise, most of the venues have closed, with some residents putting it down to gentrification which has forced many African-American residents out of previously low-income neighborhoods. One area, [[Shaw (Washington, D.C.)|Shaw]], which was 11 percent white in 1970, was 62 percent white by 2015. Some new residents, however, have embraced go-go and locals are optimistic that it will continue to thrive. After one new resident's complaint about noise in the street, there were protests, which grew into a [[block party]] with go-go performances.<ref name=ABC>{{cite news|publisher=Australian Broadcasting Corporation News|url=https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-05-05/washington-dc-noise-complaint-triggers-gentrification-debate/11076204|title=Washington DC noise complaint triggered a debate about rich hipsters gentrifying black areas|first1=Conor|last1=Duffy|first2=Emily|last2=Olson|date=May 5, 2019|access-date=May 5, 2019|archive-date=May 5, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190505003156/https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-05-05/washington-dc-noise-complaint-triggers-gentrification-debate/11076204|url-status=live}}</ref>
