[Blacklabcollective] Space update: soundproofing and general housekeeping.

[Leggo Sirens]

Oh hey one more thing. The meeting I wanted to propose is a queer Aa
meeting that would happen on Saturdays after the tenant action and before
any shows. This person Dani Rae offered to come and speak for it at the
next meeting, and explain a little bit in case people had questions, cuz aa
can be super weird but this faction seems like rad and queer. Anyway she
offered to come and speak to the collective. I told her I would check with
yall and then give her a time. Is it cool if she came by around the middle
or end of the meeting this Tues? Then we could have a clear picture before
deciding whether it was something the collective was down with.

Lemme know what yall think and I will let her know!

Regards
Legs
