Notes

According to Max Gibson, this show was Bandcamp's return to offering public performances at their work- and retail-space, although I'm reasonably certain that they had one or more private shows within the past few weeks too. Before getting the invitation to attend I gave a quick listen to Natalie's Bandcamp releases and figured, “not my usual thing, but worth a visit', so yeah, let's go!

We arrive about 5:45 PM to find out that the band is sound-checking, so we queue up along Broadway and wait. Vax & ID check is done around 15 minutes later, and the queue is reformed on the 19th St side of the entrance. We're welcomed inside around 6:30 PM, and being close to the front of the line, we grab a pair of seats on the bench in front at Stage Right. Snacks and drinks are offered somewhere deeper in the building, but having eaten dinner before coming, I don't feel like investigating.

Whoa! This section is incomplete for now, sorry!
