I was scrolling through Weibo during my lunch break here in Toronto when Tang Master Club’s post popped up – ‘October in Shenyang, here’s your元气music care package!’ The announcement about their music festival at Shenyang Agricultural University on October 18th hit me with that familiar mix of excitement and frustration.
The description alone made me homesick – ‘rock beats hotter than bathhouse steam, electronic melodies more addictive than grilled chicken skewers.’ I could almost smell the street food and feel the autumn chill of Shenyang nights. But when I clicked the artist links – Chen Jingfei, Penny Tai, Travel Band – half the content was blocked. ‘This video is not available in your region.’ Again.
It reminded me of last Mid-Autumn Festival, when my mom tried video-calling me during a livestream concert back home. The connection kept buffering every time an artist started singing. ‘Can you hear it?’ she’d shout over the pixelated video, holding her phone toward the speakers. All I got were broken melodies between long pauses, like a badly tuned radio station.
What struck me most was how Tang Master described the event – not just as a concert, but as a ‘元气补给包’ (energy care package). That’s exactly what these cultural moments feel like when you’re overseas. They’re not just entertainment; they’re emotional sustenance. When Wang YiNuo’s folk songs or Wang QiQi’s pop tracks get blocked because of licensing issues, it’s like having care packages returned to sender.
The comment section under the post was filled with fellow overseas Chinese expressing the same frustration. One user from Australia wrote: ‘I’d pay double just to watch Travel Band’s performance smoothly!’ Another from Seattle commented: ‘Why does geo-blocking feel like being grounded by your parents when everyone else is at the party?’
There’s something particularly ironic about food brands like Tang Master organizing these events. Their instant noodles were my dorm room staple during college – the one taste of home that never had ‘regional restrictions.’ Now their music festival becomes another reminder of the digital walls separating us from cultural moments.
As I write this, I’m already planning my work schedule around the festival date. Maybe this time, with some tricks I’ve learned, I’ll actually catch the full performance without the ‘buffering’ animation becoming the main event. Because honestly? Nothing kills元气 faster than seeing that spinning loading icon when your favorite artist takes the stage.
