[POSTPONED: March 22, 2020] Thundercat / TeeJayx6 [moved to November 4, 2021]
March was going to be a very busy concert month for me. This was going to be potentially my ninth show this month.
I have seen Thundercat on a Tiny Desk and I really enjoyed his album “Drunk.” It’s not exactly my kind of music–sometimes a bit too R&Bish for me, and yet I love his overall vibe and style enough that I thought a live show from him would be really fun.
I have no idea who TeeJayx6 is or how to say the name. Indeed, there wasn’t even an opening act announced for this show until very recently.
But I had to look him up and I see that he is part of the “fringe world of scam rap.” According to Wired, all he does is scam and rap about it. He raps about the scams he does, the tools he uses and the ways he did it–so you can do it too.
“Swipe Story” is about lifting seven Xboxes and TVs from Walmart–from a red-herring perusal of the clothes racks; through fumbling conversations about golf with the clerk; to the feeling of relied zooming away in a rental car with the cargo.
Damn, see what the virus had me miss.
It turned out to be the seventh of dozens of shows cancelled or postponed by the coronavirus.
Obviously, my main concern is for everyone’s safety, including the bands!
My selfish concern though is that once the shows are rescheduled that all of these shows will be scheduled on the same day!
Let’s hope the rescheduled dates also do some social distancing.
