My aurora photos on 4th floor

Yes I will try. Dont have any contact info except his number. The friend (a girlfriend he only started seeing weeks ago) didnt have much useful info & I cant find public notification yet. I didnt really know him well enough to feel comfortable asking family what happened if I find them. Just awful
Thank you
We weren't super close but I saw them every week at lessons and we had plans to meet at a bar tonight for an AC/DC tribute show. I don't have any contact info except his number. I don't know the kids mom and now I'm not sure if I'll ever know what happened. Really shaking me up. We were same age.
A single dad & his kids have been taking lessons at my studio for the last year. My front desk just got a call from his friend handling his affairs, notifying that he died, found in bed, no obvious cause of death. I'm stunned, devastated for the kids.
My colleague is founding member of the popular social justice and Black lives advocacy music group out of Minneapolis, Brass Solidarity
Members came in today to lead our ensemble class for "Hold On (Change Is Coming)" ๐ถ
Brass Solidarity meets at George Floyd Square, Mondays at 5:30pm Support them!
The visuals behind David Byrne at Coachella.
Appropriately during "Life During Wartime"
This is 3rd concert in less than 2 weeks (Springsteen, Lady Gaga & now David Byrne) that I've personally witnessed where an artist has acknowledged the terrible times we are living under this administration.
Trump is getting boo'd at the half empty UFC event. Lol. It's all crumbling.
So awesome. The setlist was great
Coachella is streaming live. Jack White on now.

Lady Gaga, MAYHEM Ball, Night 2, St. Paul, Minnesota
I will be up all night if I try to sift through all my pictures right now but these are my favorites so far! ๐งต
Lady Gaga sends a message of solidarity and admiration to the people of Minnesota, dedicating a beautiful "Edge of Glory" to the state and changing lyrics to fit.
She also asked permission to call Minnesota her "second home" bc her fiance is from here and she "wants to be a part of it" โ๏ธ๐
Are you fckin kiddin' me dude.
So awesome. Might be one of the best concert openings ever.
I have purposefully not looked at anything from this tour. This is gonna be awesome.
Lady Gaga MAYHEM Tour, Minnesota, Night 1
Walking to arena to see Lady Gaga. Brought headphones to listen to her newly dropped single Runway. Involuntarily started Voguing in street ๐บ almost got hit by bus. Lol. Jk. Maybe ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Since doors opened, operas playing, video of Gaga writing at desk & lights have been red.
It's a vibe. Gonna be fun.
Lady Gaga, St. Paul, Minnesota, Night 1. Pin check.
Part of the fun of at Gaga concert is showing up early to see all the outfits.
I keep it subtle, but my pin game is strong. Check out my double Gaga/Beyonce Telephone โ๏ธ music video scene pin. Rockin' that tomorrow for Night 2. See ya there
I've been waiting a year for this one and Minnesota didn't get a date during the previous tour only because of COVID!
I haven't missed any other of her tours. I can't miss this one ๐ฐ
Lady Gaga is near end of her biggest tour. 10 month tour ends in NYC after she plays Minnesota on TH & Fri.
Her last MN show was in 2017!
I've been worried abt her staying healthy to make it to final dates. Now she has respiratory infctn & canceled last night in ๐จ๐ฆ๐ง๐ฅบ๐ญ
Send her healing vibes! โจ๏ธ๐ฎ๐
Forgot to give update about my neighbor eggs.
No one participated in my egg decorating ๐ฅฒ lol ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Except one mystery person... who left a creepy bunny and staged a murder scene??
My egg ๐ฐ was traumatized.
๐ฃ๐๐ Beautiful Easter sunset tonight. Looking into Minnesota over the Mississippi River from Prescott, Wisconsin.
These are secular eggs. Spring eggs? ๐คทโโ๏ธ Just for fun.
My "Peeps in the Aurora" pictures are featured in today's paper for the 2026 Pioneer Press Peeps Diorama Contest!
I didn't win any of the major categories but I got two pictures featured and a certificate of participation lol ๐๐ฃ๐ฐ
๐๐ค
5 years of Prince eggs. This year is the black crop top suit from the 1986 Parade tour.
If it happens today, on this holy weekend... that will be hilarious ๐
Courtney Love was guest on Billy Corgan's podcast yesterday. Unexpected but exciting if you're deep into 90s rock lore. The convo is unsurprisingly chaotic between those two lol but fascinating if you can hang in. They drop some grunge gossip nuggets throughout including Minneapolis 90s scene talk
*He started with War. Second song was Born in the USA but not in this video...oops
