I will be watching the final of the Copa America, including the Shakira halftime.

I had the same experience shipping packages Media Mail from Texas to Florida. I mailed the first package on a Wednesday and it arrived to its destination on Friday. My guess was that the Media Mail plane flies out of Texas on Wednesday evenings. From then on, I shipped all Media Mail on Wednesdays and each time the package arrived in 48 hours.

This video reminds me of the reenactment of the original ballet for The Rite of Spring.

The saxophone is inside a cabinet, directly beneath two guitars owned by Jimi Hendrix. The exhibit also has one of Dizzy Gillespie’s trumpets, a saxophone owned by Sidney Bechet, clothing worn by Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald’s cabaret card, videos, handwritten lyrics, contracts, Jim Morrison’s journal, more clothing, a minimoog, etc. https://www.lbjlibrary.org/news-and-press/press-releases/music-america-exhibition-opens-at-lbj-library
