Jungle by Vanessa Gil, Arts & Events EditorIt’s Tash Sultana week for me! I try to never miss a chance to see them live… it’s been almost a year since the last show. If you’ve never seen Tash live, do yourself a favor and go! They’re a multi-instrumentalist who builds songs on loops as you watch. It’s amazing to see and you won’t regret it. The concert will be my personal kick-off celebration to Pride Month.

It’s Been So Longby Vanessa Gil, Arts & Events EditorDue to life events over the past (quite a few) years, I stopped following Giants baseball as closely as I had in previous years. Thankfully, last season, I attended my first game in seven years. I missed it there at 24 Willie Mays Plaza. I wanted to feel those feels again about my team. Put aside the drama of life and care about something fun and light again. And boy, did I ever pick the right season to tune back in?! I missed this kind of torture.
