Which is to say: Yeah, we’ve been especially nostalgic of late for the Dallas music scene of The Before Times.Īnd why wouldn’t we be? I mean, man, the 2010s music scene made for some truly great memories, didn’t it? No, the music itself hasn’t stopped - sounds very much worth your while are still being regularly churned out by our city’s many talented artists - but the beloved live performance aspect of it has for the most part been tossed out of the equation, at least for the time being. It doesn’t really need to be repeated at this point: We all know that 2020 has been a garbage year.Īnd among the many shitty repercussions of this increased suckage is the havoc that the pandemic has wreaked upon our city’s vibrant music scene.
