08/11/2021: Neal Francis-Night 1-Mission Ballroom. Openers for Black Pumas and so glad they were booked for the show because it was my first time hearing them and..."hell yeah!" They were at their merch stand after the show as well and was kind enough to take a photo with me. Totally forgot to ask them to sign the artwork. We're missing the drummer in the pic fyi.
