Negativland


Today is Sunday, the 21st of November, the day for effort as a part of the state of truth, for with it we become proficient at realization.

Despite what it says over there to the right, Negativland will not be performing at The Earl tonight. Do you believe everything you read on the internet?  Apparently, they cancelled this leg of their tour for reasons unknown to me and I never got the word.


In a perfect world, one would go to Eddie's Attic in Decatur tonight to catch the early (6:00 p.m.) set by ambient accordionist Walt McClements and harpist Mary Lattimore, and then swing over to The Earl with plenty of time for the Negativland show. 


But, alas, the world is not perfect and the Negativland show was cancelled and I still don't have the skill set back yet for going out to a live music show, concerns about the covids and all aside, even (especially?) an early-evening show at the comfy Eddie's Attic. But if you're at all interested in the innovative edge of contemporary (and contemplative) music, you'll be at Eddie's tonight for this extraordinary show.  

Me? Despite my enthusiasm and appreciation of these artists, I'll be spending the night as I have for pretty much the past two years now - home alone, playing video games and watching television.  Good times.  Depression and crippling social anxiety can be fun.
