First blog post in 2017 - lets count 2016 musical blessings

It's been a whole year since I started this website/blog. I attended 14 gigs and one festival. Most gigs were of indie bands with two being of established performers: Rod Stewart and James (the band). If you want to read any of the gig reviews, you can find them right here.

Things I have to note is that in December I heard Clean Cut Kid on the radio twice! I found it interesting as in my gig review I remembered that they weren't anything exciting! I wish them well and I hope they prove me wrong! By the sound of it, they just might!

Furthermore, I heard the Nutterjacks on the radio. It was an introduction of new bands but nonetheless, it's a start! I liked the Nutterjacks. 

Lastly, I heard that Georgie has signed with a record company. If I recall correctly it's with Columbia! I hope it's true because she really was impressive when I heard her at the Dot-to-Dot festival.

Those were the news for 2016. For the new year, I have already attended one gig The Hunna. To this day, I have booked 7 gigs for 2017. Most are until May but there is one in September. I also have set my heart on one for October so once tickets are on sale I'll rush to buy mine. I say I will rush because I really wanted to attend The Kooks gig but I didn't get a chance to buy a ticket! It was sold out in a matter of days! I know you will say Ed Sheeran's was sold out in a matter of minutes I should have acted quick - well...I'm not a youngster anymore... I need my time! No - I didn't purchase an Ed Sheeran ticket either - not because I wasn't fast enough be because I wasn't interested. 

So here is to a good gig year. Happy tuning strumming singing humming everyone :)
