Like, now, dude.

And lookie here, there’s a First Friday event that can get you moving on the path toward overdue enlightenment. Check out the Bach & Friends flick that documents the deepest musings of world-class Bachterians.

The event acts as a kickoff shindig for the Arizona Bach Festival, scheduled to burn down various Valley stages for more than a week.
