Live music is my thing. I love going to gigs and seeing my favourite bands perform as well as new upcoming acts too. There is just something about live music that I love. Travel and gigs usually take up most of our time and I’m happy that we managed to combine the two in 2017 on a few occasions. Hopefully, 2018 can bring travel and gigs together again, possibly even on a bigger scale. [Read more…] about My Top 5 Best And Most Memorable Gigs Of 2017
Gigs & Festivals
Rocking and a ‘Rolling’ good time at BST Hyde Park 2017
It’s been a while since I wrote about live music, so what better way to start again by giving you the lowdown on my first festival experience at BST Hyde Park. This festival was the main reason for our trip to London as we really wanted to see Kings of Leon headline the event. People thought we were mad as we had seen them three times already a few months before, but we still really wanted to go and it was completely worth it.

Gavin DeGraw at O2 ABC Glasgow
Gavin DeGraw is one of my favourite musicians and his O2 ABC Glasgow gig was one I’d been excited about for a long time. The night finally came around and he didn’t disappoint his Scottish fans. [Read more…] about Gavin DeGraw at O2 ABC Glasgow

Kings of Leon | The Echo Arena Liverpool
As you’ve probably gathered from my previous posts, I’m a big fan of Kings of Leon, so much so that a road trip around the UK to see them perform at various venues is no biggie for us. A European road trip might be on the cards for their next tour. Watch this space. [Read more…] about Kings of Leon | The Echo Arena Liverpool
Kings of Leon | Metro Radio Arena Newcastle
Kings of Leon are my favourite band. I’ve seen them so many times, but it never gets boring, only more amazing. When they announced their UK tour I knew I had to get tickets for the Glasgow show, but I didn’t expect to end up getting Newcastle and Liverpool tickets as well. What can I say I love Kings of Leon and a good old road trip. [Read more…] about Kings of Leon | Metro Radio Arena Newcastle
The 1975 were Better than chocolate at The Hydro | Venue Access Review
I’ve been a fan of The 1975 for such a long time so when they announced dates for their UK tour I was straight online to find out more. I was even more excited to see they were coming to Scotland to perform at The SSE Hydro in Glasgow the week before Christmas. All I wanted for Christmas was tickets to this show.

Birdy at The Edinburgh Corn Exchange | Venue Access Review
I was supposed to see Birdy at the 02 ABC Glasgow, but due to the lift being broken at the venue I couldn’t attend. Upset and disappointed that I wouldn’t be able to attend Birdy’s show, which I had been looking forward to for such a long time, I was relieved to discover she was performing the following night at The Edinburgh Corn Exchange.

Guest Post: Festival volunteering & accessible camping with a disability
When you hear the word accessible, camping probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. Music festivals can throw out so many additional barriers for disabled music fans; from camping out, storing medication, standing or sitting all day without a break, large crowds that appear much faster than they disappear and without a doubt the biggest barrier of all – MUD! Lots and lots of mud. [Read more…] about Guest Post: Festival volunteering & accessible camping with a disability
Nashville in Concert @ Colston Hall Bristol Venue Access Review
I’ve been a huge fan of the hit TV show “Nashville” ever since it first aired way back in 2012. So I couldn’t quite believe it when it was announced some of the cast were bringing their ‘Nashville in Concert’ tour to the UK after the success of their US tour. I had to get tickets no matter what! After all, I am a true ‘Nashie’. [Read more…] about Nashville in Concert @ Colston Hall Bristol Venue Access Review
