It actually wasn't me who asked the question on that live, it was someone else! I did get & post a screen recording of it, though. And yes, that was the context & timing, though the article itself wasn't mentioned explicitly.

Friends of Dorothea Presents: The Life of a Showgirl Listening Party ❤️‍🔥💃🏼🧨✨

A range of prices available & will continue to update the range as other tix are purchased.

I can’t promote this as much as usual so pls repost if you’re able to so I can get the word around 💕

Tomorrow is going to be a CRAZY day for #baseball fans who are also #swifties

I made this meme for a joke specific to my #Franatic group chat, but I feel like it has broader potential. lol

Replying to @Leah Davis @Frances Whitney just covered “The Best Day” for the first time live as a surprise song! #taylorswift #swiftie #swifties #swifttok #swiftok #swiftietiktok #taylorswifttok #tayl... TikTok video by Ty Wilson

@justdaniel.bsky.social I almost forgot to mention - she played a Taylor cover at the Larimer Lounge show in May, and it was amaaaaazing. 🥹🥹🥹 www.tiktok.com/@13tywilson/...

ALSO, she'll be back in Denver on November 24, opening for @nickmulvey.bsky.social at the @bluebirdtheater.bsky.social

Here's the complete schedule of events, with Frances's gigs highlighted. They're all free. The two tailgates are "unplugged" in the Red Rocks parking lot. The "Silver Linings" and "Bramily Brunch" events have amplification.

Hey, I'm so sorry I never replied to this. But yes - it was an AMAZING show!!

And Frances will be back in Colorado very soon - she has several gigs as part of the #Bramily festivities around Brandi Carlile's Red Rocks weekend next month, including a free show 2 weeks from tonight at Brewability.

And if you're worried about violence this weekend, imagine how much worse it'll be if there's no immediate action to hold *these* assholes accountable.

If they get away with roughing up a senator at a press conference, then protesters will be killed. It's a straight line.

I think California needs to start arresting Feds. drastic but we’re there.

I realize this criticism is so common as to be almost cliche at this point, but FOR FUCK'S MOTHERFUCKING SAKE, this is perhaps the most egregious example I've ever seen of the @nytimes.com catastrophically failing to describe fascism as fascism. What the FUCK is wrong with them?!?

Proud of the #Rockies. When they got their 9th win of the season on May 23, with seven games still to go in May, the doubters and naysayers didn’t think they could make it into June with single-digit wins. But I always believed. And by God, they did it.

Yes

The wave-particle duality is so #performanceartlor, amiright @underthepink7.com 🤪

I was scrolling through my feed, and it was all #swiftie posts until this, so now all I can think is that electromagnetic dissociation is so Rep-coded. 🐍

POPE CHIPOTLE BURRITO VII

Hey Daniel! Will I see you guys at the show tomorrow? Come say hi if so! 🫶

Just posted this last-minute pitch/reminder on FB:

I might make this into a protest sign

One more @statsfm.bsky.social chart:

Week 1 of Frances Whitney’s debut EP vs. Week 1 of @jensenmcrae.bsky.social’s sophomore album.

Pretty similar totals! 107 vs. 104.

Mind you, "Theo's Party" was only released on March 7. If @statsfm.bsky.social was able to include all the times I listened it pre-release as a Local File (initially my unofficial MP3 edits, then the demos that Frances sent me), it would be *way* ahead of anything else. Probably >100 streams total.

And here are my top songs of 2025 so far.

@jensenmcrae.bsky.social's "Tuesday" is #4 for the calendar year to date, even though it's only been out for **SIX DAYS**, so that's impressive, lol.

Lily Fitts #2 and #5 with two major earworms.

Frances Whitney's gorgeous "Theo's Party" #1 as expected.

Year to date:

Frances Whitney* 441
Brandi Carlile 264
Taylor Swift 222
Jensen McRae 207
Lily Fitts 152
Elton John 83
Noah Kahan 66
Phoebe Bridgers 57
Chappell Roan 50
Olivia Rodrigo 45

*technically 346 for Frances Whitney (newer songs) + 95 for Frances Lee (older songs), but I'm combining them

My monthly @statsfm.bsky.social top artists (by # of streams):

JAN: Frances Whitney 75, Jensen McRae 21, Brandi Carlile 17
FEB: Taylor Swift 120, Brandi 71, Frances 61, Phoebe Bridgers 42
MAR: Frances 115, Brandi 90, Taylor 72, Noah Kahan 59
APR: Frances 189, Jensen 155, Lily Fitts 143, Brandi 86

Folks, please fact-check thoroughly before spreading viral posts about tariff impacts. Claims of currently-empty ports and all that. There’s a lot of misinformation going around. Let’s have a bit more media literacy and skepticism than the MAGAs, please.

#Gaylors of Bluesky, help me spread the word about this! 🌈 🫶

Not only is Frances a fellow #Gaylor, her Seattle opener Avery Cochrane is also #queer and has a fantastic song about #comphet called “Existential Crisis at the Tennis Club.”

(Frances is in Seattle 5/6, Denver 5/10, and San Diego 5/14.)

One week till Frances Whitney’s concert at Barboza in #Seattle.

If you’re a PNW #swiftie or #livie or #busyhead or #bramily or … just a fan of great music and top-notch #lyricism … trust me, you do NOT want to miss this.

I don't have anything clever to say about this. Just understand: the collapse of American constitutional democracy, and the rise of authoritarian fascism, isn't a looming menace, it's present reality. America is a fascist country now. Our government is a fascist regime. What are we doing about that?

I *want* to finish the new @jensenmcrae.bsky.social album, but I'm on my third consecutive listen of "Tuesday," and I may need a few more before I can proceed.

Reminds me a little bit of the first time I heard "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)" in the produce aisle at King Soopers.

Um, @jensenmcrae.bsky.social?

HOLY. SHIT.

I brought down thе moon for you
And you put out the light
Like Judas giving Jesus onе kiss
Fuck it, maybe Brutus' hand slipped

I don't wanna talk about how
You can't remember it now
How holding my hand left a bruise
'Cause it was just Tuesday to you

🔥🔥🔥
