Writing this weeks notes roundup from Vegas! This was from The Sphere on Friday night watching No Doubt - incredible experience!

Welcome to 6 Notes Sunday. A new weekly thing I'm doing for chilled Sundays when all we want to do is skim headlines and drink coffee (or tea in my case).

Thanks for the amazing info Tracy Friedlander 🙏
