As promised this is my first post of 2021 that breaks up the monotony of politics with something fun to discuss. For those who enjoy my pithy commentary have no fear I will be posting as usual very soon! So what can we discuss today that people might be interested in? I have thought long and hard about what would be interesting for most of you and then it hit me, entertainment! So here is what I was thinking, what do you do for entertainment and why?
For me I enjoy a lot of different forms of entertainment. But the most enjoyable thing I like to do is attend concerts and hockey games! 2020 prevented both of those things but hockey season recently started and my wife agreed to let me order the Center Ice package on Direct TV which allows me to watch every single Colorado Avalanche game this season!!! So while that does not have the same energy as being there live I have really enjoyed being able to watch my team. Hockey has an energy live that I have never felt at any other sporting event. It is a very enjoyable way to spend a few hours and it gives me a great feeling no matter if the team I am rooting for wins or loses. Here in Tucson we have 2 hockey teams, the University of Arizona and the AHL club team for the Coyotes the Tucson Roadrunners. Both of these teams are awesome to watch live and I really miss being there with my family and friends.
The other thing I truly miss is live concert events. Since 2012 I have worked with a website called Faygoluvers which covers the genre of Underground rap and hip hop mostly. I do music reviews, show reviews, and some interviews for them and it has allowed me to get deeply involved in something that brings me relaxation and enjoyment. I have gotten to interview some amazing artists and review a ton of amazing albums. But the thing I enjoy most is being at live shows. Nothing gives me the ability to escape the realities of life for a short time like being there. For that few hours I can give myself entirely to the vibe and energy in the building and let the outside world disappear. Toward the end of 2020 I began writing music reviews again and found while immersing myself in the music I found some of that same feeling. It will never be the same as live event but until that can begin again I am going to work hard to provide new reviews and start to make the review section of the site very active!
So in the end here I would like to know what kinds of things do you enjoy for entertainment and how do those things make you feel? I know for some movies or tv shows give that ability to relax. For others it is reading. What is it that feeds your soul?
