Monday Roundup #125

Community notes:

  • Good news to hear that regularly scheduled concerts are returning to Burdock's Music Hall, a cozy and good-sounding room. Keep an eye out here for upcoming events in the space.
  • Meanwhile, for reasons that are completely opaque to me, I was kicked off Instagram — some algorithm thought my postings were too much like bots, I guess — so apologies to anyone that found that to be a useful spot to keep up with postings here.
  • And also meanwhile, if you'd rather see me in person anyway, there's an unusual confluence of things this week. Besides the regular first-Tuesday-of-the-month hang at Wenona for Track Could Bend tomorrow, I'll also be guest-hosting Audiopollination (Friday at Array) and Ayal Senior's Tranzac residency (Sunday at 2:30). Come hang out!
