Monday Roundup #188

Community notes:

• Reminder: the Tranzac's calendar remains under the weather, do check on their social media channels for more info on what's happening this week!

• It's down there in the concert listings, but also worth highlighting up here that The AMBiENT PiNG is celebrating their 25th anniversary with a special show at Handlebar tonight. Kudos to PiNG organizers (and dreamSTATE musicians) Scott M2 and Jamie Todd for showing how to keep a series going for the long haul, finding new formats and venues when necessary, and teaching us all about perseverance in making art and building community.
