Monday Roundup #141

Community notes:

  • Update on Ted Phillips' memorial & fundraiser
    Thanks to the community's generosity, we had a successful fundraiser for Ted Phillips' memorial concert, which brought amazing sounds and lots of memories to The Tranzac last weekend. After covering expenses, we had a small surplus, so we are going to put it into the "Ted Fund", which will be used so that members of the community can go to concerts even in times of financial stress. We will make arrangements with some of the shows that Ted would have liked so that anyone can come to the door and say, "I'm here with Ted," and they can get in, no questions asked. We're going to work with Exit Points and Audiopollination as a sort of pilot project and see where it goes from there. (If you have any questions or comments about this, feel free to email Joe at mechanicalforestsound@gmail.com.)
    Let's keep the memories alive, and keep Ted's spirit in our community.
