In case you don’t know of him (and I can’t believe that is possible and if so, how can we even be friends), “Matisyahu is an American Jewish reggae singer, rapper, beatboxer, and alternative rock musician, known for blending spiritual themes with reggae, rock and hip hop beatboxing sounds.” Check him out. I bet you know some of his work, even if the name is not top of mind.
The first time I saw Matisyahu was in July 2008 at an
outdoor show at the San Diego Fair at Del Mar Raceway while visiting my cousins.
In addition to the wonder of Matisyahu, the fair presented us with fairway food
that included Chocolate Covered Bacon (oh, yes, yum!) and Deep Fried Butter, about which we could only ask “why?”.

This third Matisyahu show places him in the running with my other musician boyfriend, Chris Isaak, as the artist I’ve seen the most often. They are also tied for the title of “famous musicians who don’t yet know they are my
boyfriend.”
Summer 2022 may be nearly over, but this was my first concert of the summer. That is because
the George Clinton Parliament Funkadelic show scheduled for Worcester in June
was cancelled without explanation. There is still a twinge of bitterness over that.
