I can't believe the hypocrisy. This is thousands of dollars of free "public art" and they are mad because they didnt get to pick it and censor it! So much better than an ad wrap! Looks like all our "edgy" "urban" areas people are flocking to because of "art districts." 🤷🏾♀️
Our friend, Ed Ackerson, the brilliantly talented musician, producer, and a pillar of Minneapolis music will be dearly missed. Our hearts are with Ashley and Annika.

Dear fellow introverts,
Here is a list of things you can do to support your local scene if you don't have the spoons to go to gigs (A thread):
-pay for music (digital, CD, tapes, vinyl)
-buy merch (t-shirts, pins, stickers)
-share your favorite artists with friends
-listen to artists your friends recommend
-actively seek out new artists, most local artists don't have an advertising budget
-stream music even when you aren't in the room
-request your favorite artists on local radio
-follow and support local labels
-read/listen/support local media that covers local artists (podcasts, blogs) and recommend your favorite artists to the media
-follow and share artist on social media
Sincerely,
An introvert
