Brings to mind the time I saw Roseanne Cash perform on Governor’s Island. My bike and I crossed over by ferry. I rode around the island’s coast a couple of times, meandered through the little abandoned military town at the interior, got into a half-trance of observing and musing, had a lunch of street vendor food, then staked out a place on the lawn. 

It’s a mix of boredom and delight when I attend an outdoor performance, no matter how good or bad it is. This was a good one. Roseanne Cash is a favorite vocalist of mine and there she was in the same patch of sunlight as me, performing her heart out, close enough to hear me if I’d yelled her name. I felt pleased with myself for being there. Maybe also for being restless before the show ended. 

I didn’t have a woman or friend with me, but I’d had that experience a good number of times before, and knew I would again. It felt great to be living in a city where an afternoon like that was nothing unusual. Also, even in New York City, to know it was taking place on a planetary surface. The humans gathering on a green patch of the landscape to hear one of their members perform a singing, safe from the solar radiation and the vacuum. Like a chapter from *The Martian Chronicles*. *\~ June 20, 2021 / Text to Rob McCaskill*
