A Note To Friends
Helloooo out there, pony pals far and wide…
We assumed that at this point in October we would be frantically preparing and finalizing details to share as we approached what would have been the 9th annual Sidepony Express Music Festival in Bisbee, on Nov 13-15th.
But, as you may have guessed, the current pandemic and public health crisis have changed everything.
Now, we have been brainstorming for months on other possibilities but ultimately are not going to be able to do the festival this year. I know, it’s the worst.
Nothing would have been better than to be able to go out and blow off this steam from a terrible stretch of months, but we just aren’t there yet. Everyone’s safety and health and well-being are our utmost priority, and we don’t want to encourage any gatherings of crowds or negative health consequences. Even with the utmost care and adherence to recommended safety guidelines, the logistics and inherent properties of the event prevent us from being able to make it work at this time.
Rest assured, we’d love to keep it going and pick up where we left off next year. We will come back stronger than ever and with a huge appetite for independent music!
Additionally, we want to stand in solidarity with our entertainment industry brothers and sisters who, like us, are so severely affected by the ongoing Covid-19 climate. It will be a very long time before the industry is back on its feet and venues can safely promote shows and music professionals can go back to making a living with their lifelong skillsets.
We believe that until we are able to collectively eradicate the threat of the virus in our everyday lives, we have to all “work together alone” by staying home whenever possible, each doing our part to protect and preserve the arts and entertainment infrastructures of the world.
So, as sad as we are to have to skip a year, we are just as anxious to get through all this and move on, once and for all. We appreciate your help in achieving this goal.
If you would like to help Team Sidepony weather the storm and prepare for next year, please send that love riiiiiight here:
SIDEPONY FUND
For every $5 you donate, you’ll be entered to win a pony prize pack. As you know, we have always operated on a tiny shoestring budget with lots of generous help from an incredible team of freelancers and volunteers, so every little bit helps.
In the meantime, we encourage you to:
-Check out music, videos, merch and livestreams of hundreds of Sidepony artists -Support small businesses of Bisbee -Listen to these curated playlists from our family and beyond (Sidepony 8, AZ Locals) -Listen to independent radio stations like KWSS, KXCI and KBRP -Explore #saveourstages for ways you can help venues
AND
Please please exercise your right to VOTE. And do it now!
Thanks again for being a part of our community over the years and let’s get through this together. See you next year!
Love and art and music,
Team Sidepony

What kind of magical treasures have you found before in VaVoom!? We’ve gotten obscure vintage board games, out of print books, fake fur coats, vinyl record gems, kooky 1950’s lapel pins, and so much more. Dancing to the beat of their own drum, you’ll find them on the corner of OK Street and Main near Thuy’s. And you can find them on Etsy!
