I added a new Upcoming feature to Release Notes:

Release Notes now has a new section for what’s coming next. In Upcoming you can save birthdays, anniversaries, trips, and one-time events. You can choose when you would like these events to show up in your Release Notes. Trips include a destination with a start and end date. All of these upcoming events are private to only you.

I’m having a lot of fun journaling each day’s version.

We saw Sting tonight at the Orpheum. It was really cool to see a music legend in such a small venue. It was a great show including a wide range of his catalog. According to Wikipedia he is 75 years old but doesn’t seem like it!

Sting plays bass under purple light beside a drummer, a giant screen of him behind them and audience silhouettes below. Guitarist, bassist, and drummer perform on stage under white light beams and red patterned projections above a crowd.

Years ago I purchased three collections of art by nnxyz on nifty.ink. I’ve now archived them in better detail than they were ever before available on my nnxyz collection site. Nifty.ink captured all art in dots and strokes so I used that to render SVG versions of all the art. Lovely. 🎨

Cold and rainy weather put a damper on the evening but it was still cool to watch John Munson play with Steve Sutherland and I’m not remembering the guitar player’s name in a backyard show.

Guitarist in a cap, drummer, and singing bassist in red plaid play on a lit backyard stage at night before a wooden fence.
