This year has been a slightly more busy one in recent years for live shows and music festivals, though I never get to all the shows I want to go to – I sometimes realize staying home can be more enjoyable. I managed to even see some out in the UK (which I’d been missing for awhile) and a few bands I wouldn’t normally get to see thanks to friends being really generous and helpful with extra tickets and just taking the time to hang out. I’m linking any reviews and/or photos I may have taken at the events.
