#WEALLHAVEASTORY<br />
This month, a rosy cherub will emerge from the snow,<br />
cock its heart-shaped bow and let loose its velvet<br />
arrows somewhere in our general direction. Not<br />
everyone enjoys Valentine’s Day, of course. For those not<br />
in relationships, it can be a grim reminder – at such a cold<br />
time of the year – of the bleak overwhelm of enduring<br />
solitude (this writer’s advice: the Internet is vast). For<br />
those whose love boat is floundering on stormy seas,<br />
<strong>February</strong> 14 can be a tricky obstacle to navigate. (Helpful<br />
hint: it is probably not, as one might assume, a propitious<br />
time to send one’s partner that article about trying an<br />
open relationship.) For the lucky number of you, however,<br />
who are looking to hit the town and celebrate your love<br />
by listening to some live music, possibilities abound.<br />
