When you’ve given up all paid streaming services (and steal occasional logins from your BFF), it forces you to watch quirky shit from your library.

Saw the great SarahMcLachlan who gives me inspiration to keep trying to hit the high notes! Loved all her story sharing!

More Suzanne Ciani. Iphone mic can't do it justice.

Went to the leafy suburbs to hear synth pioneer Suzanne Ciani at her alma mater, Wellesley College. She plays the Buchla synth and creates long soundscapes that are improvisational and very avant garde. It was a shot in the dark but I'm hooked!

Suffice it to say I am def an #OMD Super Fan. I was glued to the show. Andy looked at everyone in the eye, so engaging, fun and gracious (his dancing!). #Boston did not want them to leave. And #Waltdisco left us hopeful for the new gen of synth pop!

It’s happening OMD in #Boston tonight. Thanks to short-lived WXXP 100.7 FM, a whole world of music opened up to me in small town Pennsylvania, and I did not spend my youth listening to Top 10 pop music

Current sitch. This instrumental version of Angie is so cool. From Gasper Noé’s movie Climax. “Take ur time. Just chilling in parking lot”😂

Perfume Genius with his yoga ball, chair and crazy cords in Boston. Great show! Don’t miss!

I am watching one of these from the library tonight....hmmm. Total rando picks.

A patriotic encore with some creative new lyrics. Gillian Welch and David Rawlings #Boston

Rainy miserable night, I’ll go see these guys! I found Gilian Welch by chance when she played a tiny show at Powell’s Books in Portland, OR

Shy, As Is, Both Hands, Shameless. Ani DiFranco pulled out the hits along with songs from the new millennium 😁 and one from Hadestown

Long live the paper ticket

I have come to love Beth Gibbons Lives Outgrown but of course the crowd went wild with Roads from Dummy #Boston 4/4

They gave me a god damn paper ticket for my memory

Gig keyboard ✅
18 pounds. $125 steal from a rich investor guy in the Seaport. I will give it a good home. Playing at Velvet Underground tribute show 4/11

Amazing live shows! Waiting for the next one!

Thoughts? Ableton Live or Logic? The place where I take music lessons is offering a class in Ableton, but I was thinking my next move up from GarageBand was Logic. I love EDM, dance, house, ambient as a Listener, but I wanna SING with my DAW. All the interfaces are pretty transferable?

Making some strides in my music production setup 😆😉😂😎

A very cool cat, she was. Tribute to the sister who taught me the way to creativity. Gone from cancer 21 years today. I got all of her amazing music, jewelry, and bohemian furniture and kitsch.
