The week’s calendar is brought to you by the questionable propriety of wearing shorts on a livestream. On tonight’s Sunday Songs, Joe Pug made the greatly debated decision to wear said article of clothing which he seemed to regret as soon as he was required to stand up. “Something about playing music in shorts, just makes everything a little less serious, right”, he clipped as his wardrobe decision was found out by the audience. As the weather warms up, I’ve been debating the decision myself when it comes to my work meetings, all on video these days. By the end of Joe Pug’s stream, I was feeling positive on the idea of shorts-wearing until Joe’s parting remark, a promise to wear pants next week.
Aside from keeping your pants on, another thing to remember for next week is to follow on The Hotel Cafe’s Instagram account. Starting Monday, and for the next 20 days, The Hotel Cafe will have special performances streaming on IGTV to celebrate 20years of bringing amazing musical artists to Los Angeles and beyond. Guests include Sara Bareilles, Ingrid Michaelson, James Bay, The Milk Carton Kids, Cary Brothers, Butch Walker, Zane Carney, Garrison Starr, Jay Nash, Brian Wright, Keaton Simons, Tim jones and oh so many many more!
