hey tiny.

there are exactly 25 of you reading this. that’s the right number. we’re keeping the circle small while we test the subwoofers.

i’m janet. i'd be down in the tunnels with you for this, but my head hits the pipes. so i’m staying up top.

but i have a great view from up here.

every week, i'll drop the coordinates, the lineups, and the things you actually need to know before you go out. no filler.

send this to someone with good taste. tell them janet says hi.
