‘Netfest: On Your Couch’ Offers a Virtual Concert with Twiztid, B Real of Cypress Hill, Redman and More
No weekend plans? You’re in luck, as you can watch a full, virtual concert from the comfort, and safety, of your couch this weekend.
Alternative rap duo Twiztid, in collaboration with the creators of Astronomicon, will host “Netfest: On Your Couch, A Virtual Concert Experience” on Saturday (May 30), a virtual concert experience with more than 100 underground acts and celebrity guest appearances.
After the release of Twiztid’s new album, “Mad Season,” which came out in April, the duo was forced to cancel a three-week tour due to coronavirus restrictions.
In lieu of the tour, Twiztid reached out to a handful of musicians and personalities to launch this virtual event.
All of the performances for “Netfest” were recorded in quarantine specifically for this event. The performances will air on Astronomicon’s YouTube page.
The show is divided into two segments. The pre-show will feature one to three songs from major artists in the underground hip-hop scene, while the main show will offer full sets from Twiztid and Blaze Ya Dead Homie, plus one to three songs from other big-named artists and bands.
Twiztid also promises a “big surprise” at the event.
Performers and special guests include Twiztid, Blaze Ya Dead Homie, Riitz, Hyro the Hero, Mayday, Ubiquitous from Ces Cru, Murs, RA the Rugged Man, The Comic Book Men, Redman, B Real of Cypress Hill, Kane Hodder of “Friday the 13th” fame, Spencer from Ice Nine Kills, WWE’s Mick Foley, Warped Tour creator Kevin Lyman, Christian Coma from Black Veil Brides and more.
The free show starts at 7 p.m. EST on Saturday on Astronomicon’s YouTube page.
