This week culminates in Groundhog Day, where the famous little critter peeks out to see what the spring holds. (It’s also known as Imbolc in the Celtic tradition, that midway point between the Winter Solstice and the Vernal Equinox). Peeking out from our groundhog dens is a good metaphor for the pandemic life, when you think about it. When we’re not looking for an early spring, we’re looking for a future life without masks or threat of contagion. These days, we’re looking for both, and lo! There on the horizon are reasons for hope, not least of which are the many live-streamed shows that Memphians deliver with aplomb. Huzzah to them, and huzzah to us. Stay safe and, if there’s any doubt, stay in your den and listen to the sounds streaming all around you.
