Those of you who don’t believe in magic will struggle with this one. While Santa Claus and the tooth fairy turn out to be fake as we get older, there is no denying the realness of the “myth” that is The TBG (Tall Blonde Guy).
In one of the most beautiful TBG sightings of our time, one Luca V recalls the moment a lifelong dream came true, and finally gave him the proof he needed to ward off the naysayers and the non-believers.
Let’s take that journey with him:
Luca V finally has his moment with the great man
and living legend – The TBG (Tall Blonde Guy)
Good evening Seth,
It is almost 24 hours since I saw the brilliant light that is the TBG – and I am still trying to make sense of it all.
So there I was, taking it easy at Assembly waiting for Thieve to get the show started for aKING’s Against All Odds album launch, when out of the corner of my eye I saw something I once thought to be a rumour – an urban legend if you will.
How wrong I was to entertain such an absurd idea. I walked up to the TGB, and in the most humble manner I could muster in such monumental company, I asked if he was alright with strangers asking for a photograph with him. After a chuckle and replying in the positive, the TBG put his arm around my shoulder and casually struck a pose with the grace that only the TBG possesses. Photographer Mark Reitz captured that moment – a moment I will always treasure. (see attached)
Perhaps it was the parking lot pinner from earlier, or maybe just the general positive vibe going around – I don’t know – but as you can see I was all-smiles from then on. I know now that the TGB is as real as it gets.
Thank you, TBG.
Enjoy living the holiday and strengthening ties up north Seth.
Regards,

Thank you for that, Luca, and thank you for the kind words. There’s nothing that can compare to that feeling, is there?
I’ve seen and read a number of TBG sightings in my time now, and I’m often reduced to tears when I go over the reports of the child-like elation felt by people across the globe who have all shared that one special moment with The TBG. People talk about how “amazing” it was after they’ve met with The Queen or The Pope or Prince or Gisele Bundchen – but their “experience” seems to pale in comparison to the euphoria felt during and after a TBG sighting.
You know, I chuckle to myself when civilians come up to me in the street and start verbally attacking me, shouting things like, “The TBG doesn’t exist!” or “stop peddling lies and evil myth!” I just let them carry on, because it’s not their fault. They don’t know any better. But then I say a little prayer for them; hoping, that one day, they will have their moment with the global icon of all things incredible, The TBG. He will heal them. He will forgive them. And they will be cleansed.
Amazing how the TBG is an urban legend in more than one sense of the word.
Urban God would be more appropriate.
