One thing about me is that I do believe art/music/etc are fundamental parts of being human and necessities, not luxuries, going all the way back to Lascaux Cave and Neanderthal flutes, and that those things probably become MORE important during times of strife, not less.

Tidbit: my in-laws live next door to a 60s rock guitarist. Famous enough to have a Wikipedia page and one song you DEFINITELY know. But not so famous that he doesn’t live next door to a guy who spent his career teaching people how to use accounting software.

Wine thought: was listening to the Wings compilation from 2001 and honestly Wings might have been better recognized/remembered historically as a band if it wasn’t ya know, Paul McCartney’s “band that isn’t as good as the Beatles.” (Although there is a new compilation out I think?)
