[NOT POSTPONED: March 12, 2020] The Districts / And the Kids / Sixteen Jackies
March was going to be a very busy concert month for me.
I thought that I would be starting a bunch of shows in a row with this one. Then it turned out that an event for my son that I thought was scheduled for March 19 was actually on March 12. So that meant I would not be going to this show.
I had seen The Districts back in 2017 and enjoyed the show, but I clearly didn’t enjoy it as much as everyone else in the room who knew every word to every song. I was much more prepared for this show, even if there was a new album about to come out for this show as well.
I was also really excited to see And the Kids, a band I have really enjoyed twice and who I can’t wait to see again. But they had a personal tragedy affect them and they had to cancel their opening slot of the tour. That was a major bummer.
I didn’t know Sixteen Jackies, but I had read good things about them.
Once the coronavirus started shutting down shows, I wasn’t sure if this show would get shut down. It didn’t and it turns out it would have been my last show for quite a while if I had gone.
Sounds like it was great, but I had more important things to do.
However, I hope that when they reschedule the tour that they tack on an extra Philly day so that we can enjoy them again without the fear of contagion hanging over our heads.
