SUMMARY:Music Discovery Night
DESCRIPTION:**Please RSVP on Meetup** so I know to expect you\, and so you can be notified of changes or cancellations. \nDo you like to listen to music? Do you sometimes feel like you’ve reached the end of what The Algorithm knows you’ll like? Come share your favorite songs\, broaden your musical horizons\, and make friends with fellow music fans. \nBring a song you like\, and tell us why you like it (“this just sounds cool!” is perfectly legit). We’ll all listen to it\, and have a chance to briefly react to it as a group. Just want to listen? That’s okay too\, but don’t be shy! This is a Judgement-Free Zone when it comes to musical taste 🙂. \nThink of this like music appreciation (but less formal)\, or a book club for music (but more spontaneous).
