MetaTalk

This year we are holding our tenth annual (yikes) Christmas Video Marathon, at https://cytu.be/r/Metafilter_MST3KClub. The enormity of that number is not lost of us. From the noon (Eastern time) of December 22nd, and all through December 23, 24 and 25, that's 84 straight hours of irreverent Christmas comedy and specials, along with other fun things, all produced with the intent of giving you something to unwind to during stressful times.

I’m looking for a thread from the past month about a few libraries (Seattle and San José are the two I remember) who set up streaming services for local unsigned bands. Searches for “music streaming libraries” or the cities in question haven’t shown me the thread. Help?

I'm interested in hearing your stories of things you've seen that no one else perhaps saw, or that you have no proof of, either good or bad but preferably good. [more inside]
