The weather giveth and the weather taketh away. We’re currently navigating the outdoor music fest season, which is a wonderful way to discover music in your own city and surrounding territories, provided the forecast plays nice. It’s hard to lure people out into the open when the rain in the gutter is flooding up to your ankles.

Someday Festival debuted Saturday in Union Square, and lived to tell the tale. Rain was coming down by the bucketful when the arts and music celebration kicked off in the early afternoon. Fortunately, the event, held at the Boston Figurative Arts Center, offered indoor and outdoor options. Acoustic acts performed indoors as locals browsed among the crafts & curios at the vintage market. Meanwhile volunteers desperately squeegeed water off the covered outdoor stage to protect the electronics.

Indoor opener Shira Laucharoen pounded out the pop thunder on a keyboard early in the afternoon, joined by a cellist adding some moody ambiance. It was a real “wet dog” start to the day. But the rain, as it is wont to do, slackened. Hats off to the volunteers, who salvaged the outdoor stage for performances later in the day and night, once the worst of the weather had passed.
