Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey there, I'm beat Map, your fearless and slightly obsessive
guide to every note, groove and echo bouncing around San Antonio.
My passion runs on pure local sound waves. If there's
a secret set in a laundry mat or a legendary
act selling out a stadium, you can bet I'm there.
Bobbing my head in the front row or squeezed into
the back with a notebook and a tacko does nothing

(00:22):
like hunting for what makes this seem thrum and this week,
my friends, the city is lit. Okay, imagine it's tonight,
September twenty fourth, and my feed is sizzling. If you're
craving indie rock, the Killings are taking over Paper Tigers
Small stage at eight pm Dash. Expect a modest crowd,
sixteen tickets left at fifty dollars each, and a post

(00:45):
pandemic energy that's all bounced. At Sam's Burger Joint, you'll
find suff Walker delivering that rootsy, soulful blues I recommend
to anyone needing a pick me up. Tickets hover around
thirty dollars. Want Comedy Karen Moore Rgan headlines at laugh
Out Loud Comedy Club at seven thirty for sixty nine dollars.
Tomorrow's a powerhouse lineup in This Moment brings theatrical metal

(01:08):
vibes to Boeing Center at Techport, with tickets starting at
ninety dollars and red not Chili Peppers and electrifying tribute
Pepper Paper Tiger at seven pm. Twenty nine dollars gets
you in my under the Radar tip Wade Forster at
The Lonesome Rose nine pm Country Honkin Heartbreak for nineteen
dollars a pop, but let's talk venues my pick of

(01:29):
the week. Zombies Bar and live music venue. Imagine a
year round Halloween house crammed with wal to wall zombie art,
gnarly rock and metal, hot food, and a five dollars
cover that'll leave you with enough for a second round.
At the bar, Tony and Steve, the owners feel like
long lost undead cousins, and if you like your music
loud and your beer cheap, this spot's a pilgrimage site

(01:50):
for locals and outlanders alike. According to Tripperviser, their sound
is pristine, parking is plentiful, and the crowds are chill
and welcoming. San Antonio's local talent gives me butterflies. Honestly,
The West Side Horns deliver punchy jazz at Blue Star
Brewing Company. Tuesday Jazz Night is a ritual for me,
and if you skip it, we aren't friends. I'm buzzing

(02:10):
for Warm Dusher playing paper Tiber this Friday. That UK
post punk Funks do is Bunkers Live and Rumor swirls
around Diggy Graves at the Rock Box. These are the
sets where next year's breakouts cut their teeth. My weekly
musts Tuesdays mean jazz and craft bruis at Blue Star
Brewing Company. Catch the West Side Horns. Most Tuesdays. Thursdays
I'm scouting open mics at the Lonesome Rose, and Sundays

(02:33):
I gig through crates and busker jams at Bricks Sunday
Market in the Blue Star Arts Complex. The city's got
a pulse and you only feel it by wandering off
the main drag. Music festivals are my Christmas and New
Year's rolled into one. I'm already rearranging life for next
month's Breezy Bowl twenty X at the Alamodo. Chris Brown,
Jane Ako and Bresson Tiller's sharing a bill means I'm
basically living at the Dome September twenty seventh, then heads

(02:55):
up for this year's to Hanno Explosion. The schedule, whispers
and group chats keep me on my toes. Festival days
means zero sleep and pure bliss. San Antonio's secret soundscapes
hide in patio bars, tacko joints, and even laundromats down
on Saint Mary's Strip. Last month, I caught a house
show behind a bakery that blew minds and fuses. It's
about knowing which bartender is also a drummer, in which

(03:18):
taco stand keeps flyers under the napkin trays. My methods
for last minute shows, Instagram stories from bands and paper
Tiger staff, push notifications from local ticket sites like concert
Fix and texting my group chat. Anything weird tonight Usually
someone's cousin's band is playing somewhere glorious and enlisted. If
