Fan of: Throwing insane birthday parties for yourself - my friend (shoutout Colleen) threw an absolutely insane 30th birthday for herself this weekend - dubbed “Colchella”. She had a tattoo artist, a food truck and like 7 friends do B2B sets. When she DJ’d she played Daft Punk’s 2007 Coachella set which was hilarious and perfect.
Guest Slug: Meg Elsier (Thursday, 6/19 at Union Pool)

Thanks for reading slugs.
I like Saba but I hate that hat. Can confirm many copycats of said hat in Maine only, they are knit by actual children. Banana slug meanwhile - A+
