WHO'S GOT ME COVERED?
I just realized a day or two ago that I never got to the August Local Play. I remember putting it off to allow for some playlist late-comers, then I just never got back to it.

So to help keep this from happening again, I wanna try a few things. First, anyone wanna contribute, help compile or even take over Local Play? Second, to keep Cringe on its toes, Local Play should now be updated weekly. I'll have to see what schedule works out with anyone who volunteers to help, but I'm thinking each weekend or later in the week.

Please contact Local Play if you can help.
