BLOGPOST UPDATE IN PROGRESS

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 516 & BENKYO RADIO 516.

I really want to thank Coachella for putting Swedish House Mafia and The Weeknd on their YouTube live pages. It was really fun to watch. I understand that DJ Hanzel and Sama Abdulhadi also performed, and look forward to watching their performances. Thank you to those that attended and behaved, and did not accept pills from strangers, because as I have previously mentioned on older blog posts, it is not worth falling victim to Fentanyl. Electronic Dance Music is about THE MUSIC, and not solely about being drugged on Ecstasy and whatnot. I thank you all for returning to your respective states in ONE-PIECE, and thousands of parents can breathe a sight of relief. Thank you for reminding yourselves that going to a concert is fun, but only if you return home safely. I would like to thank God, Jesus, Allah, Buddha, and the Autobots that no overdose incidents happened at this festival.

Until Next Time!
