So the plan was to see one concert per month or 12 concerts in a year. The monthly thing didn't work out and I ended up going to 14 must-see concerts. To me this was like 14 mini vacations instead of spending money on one trip.
If you go through my blog to see all the reviews, you may find there are some missing. Either I live tweeted the concert or I didn't have enough info/knowledge of the band to write a whole review. There were many things I missed out on due to either media access problems, security or venue staff, meet and greets taking place during the concert, I just wasn't sitting in a good spot to really see what was going on, or time spent waiting by the buses etc. If I don't SEE the whole thing I can't really WRITE about the whole thing. I never claimed to be a photographer (I always had someone else to do that before) but at least I tried. I definitely need to invest in a better camera!
