My wife Kelli and I watched the Yacht Rock Dock last night and what's funny is, everything I wanted to say about it in the NL, Chris already covered. It was so great. I’ve been Yacht Rockin' all day.
After so many big ticket concerts (STONES!) in 2024, I’m resolving to do the same.
Great points on how best to support local music and touring musicians you care about. I want to also throw out a shout-out for the visual artists in music (the graphic artists, the photographers, the videographers) - would love to see more bands attribute their visuals so that we can support and encourage all the artists involved in music
As someone who once went to school for that and dabbled in web design (and still cranks out some music related graphics!), I echo that!!! Great point, Chuck - thank you!!
Thanks for this. I do try and support artists by, at the very least, following/sharing their Spotify + YouTube... I buy music when I can, which these days is never. I go to shows when I can. I always buy merch even if I can't afford it. We have a lotta local musicians here in Northwest Florida/Southeast Alabama, and it's imperative that I throw a few bucks in the tip jar.
Absolutely - just that simple act of tipping means a lot. Made even easier with digital payments - look for those QR codes by the tip jar! ;) I use that when I DJ too.
PS does anyone want a mini-disk player??
Hey! Not cool.
😂someone call the coroner! 😂
This week’s newsletter has SO much!! LOVE the reminder to see live music often & at small indie venues. Yes please! 2025 resolution.

Impressive and thank you. And I’m sure the bands thank you too!
