Happy New Year, everyone! 2009 was quite the rollercoaster- so here’s to an awesome 2010!
Make one of your new year’s resolutions to go out and support live music, as well as to buy music and merch from those bands that deserve our support!
Just wanted to say thanks for reading- you all made my year very special even at the most difficult times!
What are my new year’s resolutions? Basically to keep having fun with this. I want to seize every opportunity, live in the moment, and document it to the best of my ability. I spent the last week reading my reviews….and I am heading into 2010 knowing what I need to improve on (3am grammar edits in particular). I am also getting thicker skin- so in 2010 my goal is to care less about what others think!
I also wanted to give a few shout-outs to people who I couldn’t have made it through this year without, whether they be partners in crime at shows or ticket angels or both!
