Monday Roundup #22

In the absence of concert listings, my regular Monday dispatches have fallen off. After bringing some life to the blog with the "bumping into" series, I figure I should get back in the groove. I'm guessing that this will be a bit like what used to get shoved into the end of the post when I was doing listings — some bandcamp suggestions, nods to a few livestreams, and sundry community notes (email me if you have anything that needs broadcast in the latter category!). Plus maybe a look back through the MFS archives.


Community notes:

  • Just a quiet reminder: "re-opening" doesn't have to be an instantaneous, 0-to-100 kind of thing. Go at your own pace, keep doing the things that make you feel safe and comfortable. It's swell and heartening to see concert announcements and suchlike, but there's still a lot of question marks about how things are going to look a couple stages down the line — especially for the music "sector", where there's no solid re-opening plans in place yet. And definitely don't feel like you're a spoilsport if you're in less of a rush than someone else! Concern for others (and yourself) is still the true reason for the season and ain't going out of style soon.

It happened this week...

  • ...on June 14, 2015, at Geary Lane as part of "Sound Séance I", Night 3.

Bandcamp corner:

  • "The album was abandoned in 2019 and these demos are all that remain. Given that much of ZA's prior output has been lo-fi and impulsive, we see no reason not to share this with you."
