We watched th 2024 eclipse from the rooftop of a hotel in Manhattan — it was not a total eclipse, but enough to be impressive and eerie with a touch of magic.
In the meantime I shall live vicariously through everyone that did get to experience totality. Reminds me of a favorite concept: Compersion — The feeling of joy experiencing another’s joy.
I’d certainly like to catch the full deal one day, but can’t linger too long in missing out. Perhaps Spain in 2026? One can dream!
After the celestial event we grabbed a bite and headed over to Madison Square Garden where The Breeders would open for Olivia Rodrigo. According to my records, this was my first time inside this venue.
I think my ears are still ringing from all the energy present that evening.
Favorite part of The Breeders’ set? When they played Drivin’ on 9 the crowd broke out their phone lights and swayed along. Delightful.
