1. Post it on Instagram
Share a public photo, Reel, or moment from the show on your own Instagram account.
Live Is Therapy
From the Room
Were you there? Share the show from where you stood.
Post your photo, Reel, or live-music moment publicly on Instagram, tag @musicismentalmedia, and add #MIMMLive. Selected posts may be embedded in Music Is Mental Media show coverage after editorial review.
How to take part
No file upload to MIMM is required.
How we handle public Instagram links: Privacy Policy.
2. Tag MIMM
Tag @musicismentalmedia so we can find the post and understand that you want us to consider it.
3. Add #MIMMLive
Use #MIMMLive as the shared signal for live-music posts you want MIMM to consider for From the Room.
4. We review before anything appears
Nothing is added to the site automatically. MIMM chooses which posts fit a specific show, story, or gallery.
Your post stays yours
From the Room is built around approved embeds, not copied uploads.
If we select a post, the goal is to embed the original public Instagram post or Reel rather than download and re-host your photo or video. Your media remains hosted on Instagram and ownership stays with you.
Tagging @musicismentalmedia and using #MIMMLive tells us you would like that public post to be considered for embedding in MIMM coverage. It does not transfer ownership of your work to MIMM.
If your original post becomes private, is removed, or is otherwise unavailable on Instagram, the embed may stop appearing on MIMM as well.
What we are looking for
The things that a single review can miss.
The view from where you were
Artist, crowd, room, venue, atmosphere, opener, encore, or the strange little moment that stayed with you.
Song-specific moments
A chorus, crowd reaction, B-stage moment, live arrangement, or song that became something different in the room.
Reels and short clips
Public Instagram Reels that help preserve what the show felt like, not just what the setlist says happened.
Something we missed
An opening act, angle, detail, or memory that adds another perspective to MIMM’s coverage.
Want an approved embed removed?
