A nurse who’s worked throughout the pandemic and was there with her friends said it felt like there’s an end in sight. “It’s just fucking great,” she said, between glugs of Strongbow Dark Fruit, “I feel like the world is finally getting back to normal.” There was a mini chant of “fuck COVID” to close the night, which bloated into the swell of another old familiar: “One more tune!

DJ 88 keeps making moves. Expect a special edition of her Pop Up series at Ghostbar next month, but she’s already announced the evolution of these musical parties with the first Pop Up Live event at the House of Blues on July 29—a concert by fast-rising singer/rapper Anderson .Paak and his band the Free Nationals. Tickets are on sale now.

Entertainment venues, including family fun centers, arcades and bowling alleys in Bernalillo are allowed to offer indoor service 25% capacity.
