Their rooms
One tick a night, on the one axis this page has — Aug 2023, where the listings start, to Jan 2027, the last night anybody has announced. The shaded end has not happened yet.
- Bossa Nova Civic ClubNov 2024 – Oct 20266 nights
- Metropolitan BarJun 2025 – Oct 20265 nights
- Jupiter DiscoApr 2025 – Mar 20262 nights
Once each: Mood Ring and Rash. One of the 16 listings never named a room, and is not counted as one.
Who they play with
Counted from the bills themselves, over bills of twelve names or fewer. A pair's count includes a night that is announced and not yet played; where there is one, the row says when.
