The Weekly Slug 3.2 - 3.8
a big week for slugs who love live music
Slug Tracks - refreshed
Fan of: On Saturday it was 45 degrees, which doesn’t sound like it would be that warm, but after the winter we’ve had, it genuinely felt like summer. I spent the day on a stoop that was not mine or literally any of my friends, but it was in the sun which felt nice. My friend really wanted to record a video where he tried on a stranger’s shoes, it didn’t work because no one wanted to take off their shoes or really engage with him at all. We sat on the stoop for 4 hours and talked to our friends who showed up or passed by. It’s supposed to be 70 degrees next weekend, warm enough that people might want to take off their shoes. I might even take off my own, but probably not because I have really cold feet.
Single Rec: FEET
