I almost posted that too…but figured it's something to do with the family, if you were to go to a movie theater, it would cost more than that for 4

this sounded like it might be fun (not on the grease night)
🎤 Car-a-oke: A live band, two giant screens, and the star of the show… YOU! Come together in one mass, slightly out of tune, singalong

To go to a theater to watch a 42 year old movie!?


Are we talking about Grease from 78?!?

Cross posting to good news thread

Shock-a-lock-a, boom!… what was that?  Aftershock!  The full vault recording of Prince's historic concert December 31, 1987 at @PaisleyPark will premiere on Prince's official @YouTube channel tomorrow night at 8 p.m. ET.

The New Year's Eve benefit concert was the final time Prince and his band performed their Sign O' The Times Tour stage show, and also included the only on-stage collaboration between Prince and Miles Davis

Beastie Boys

The last gig..
We've heard from so many fans around the world that were unable to tune in last night, so our friends at @Bonnaroo  are letting the set live online through the weekend.

The Beastie Boys stream is so worth the time to watch, they were so on top of their game at this point.  Which makes the timing of it even sadder… so happy\sad way to spend a Saturday morning and much needed distraction

To prevent local businesses from going under, Saxsquatch has fully guaranteed the show’s revenue to the venues. This ensures the venues and their employees get paid regardless of what happens. Saxsquatch believes in the cause to keep these venues alive and vibrant for their communities. Because of this, there will be no refunds on tickets.

If the show has to be cancelled because of COVID then the entire tour will be moved digitally. This digital tour will be a private show. Saxsquatch will send a link to watch the show live on the same day as your ticket date. Saxsquatch will also send a free Saxsquatch T-shirt, Saxsquatch stickers, and copy of his CD “The Missing Mixtape”. Saxsquatch will cover these costs himself, allowing the venue to keep 100% of their expected revenue from the cancelled show.

***IMPORTANT NOTICE (recapping above) - if the show needs to be cancelled due to COVID (or any other reason out of the venue’s control) then the ticket will not be refunded. However, you will receive:

Live Show over a digital platform (YouTube, Facebook, etc)
Tour Shirt
Saxsquatch CD (The Missing Mixtape)
Saxsquatch Stickers

STREAMING TO RAISE MONEY FOR TEENAGE CANCER TRUST: https://teenagecancertrust.org/about-us/our-story/music/unseen

Teenage Cancer Trust has launched a YouTube channel featuring exclusive and compelling music content to raise vital funds to support young people facing cancer across the UK.

Teenage Cancer Trust Unseen is an incredible archive of never-before-seen footage of live performances at the Royal Albert Hall through the years in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust.

This content will be free for fans to view but the artists and the charity are urging fans to donate.

Driven by our patron Roger Daltrey, a who’s who of world-class musical talent has played Teenage Cancer Trust’s gigs at the Royal Albert Hall over the last 20 years. All so young people with cancer get the support they deserve.

And now music legends are stepping up again, donating this exclusive footage to help make sure every young person with cancer can get support from specialist Teenage Cancer Trust nurses or youth support teams.

Because in 2020 that vital support is at risk.

Live after COVID-19: Do we really want Live Music back the way it was?
COVID-19 killed off live music virtually overnight as it swept across the world earlier this year. It has left many yearning for a return back to the way things were, before the spread of the virus. But shouldn’t we be aiming for a live industry that’s better than the way things were? Now might be the perfect time for introspection, and to rebuild the industry on a better and fairer model.

I really don’t know what they are talking about


At least here in DC I hardly ever have a bad time…sound mix is great…and I can time my arrival to the minute where the act I want to see goes on…

And music acts getting paid last? Who? New local bands?

Most bands I see definitely don’t get paid last…I think they get paid first!


Sadly all that could be over
