As a music writer, and a long-term music fan, I have been privelidged to see some of the best bands ever, and I am very grateful for the opportunities I have had.
Some of my regrets are not seeing T. Rex or Free when they regularly played locally, and I shall always regret never seeing Leonard Cohen, I have been a fan for nearly fifty years, but never did get to see him perform.
The memorable shows are Bruce Springsteen (five times) Pink Floyd (eight times, starting with the DSOTM tour in 1974) Bowie in 1973 as Ziggy, Queen as a support act in 1974, Lizzy as a support act and another dozen times after, the list just goes on.
I am really looking forward to seeeing and meeting up with the ladies from Larkin Poe in the spring - just interviewed them again for the Acoustic offshooot from Guitarist Magazine - should be in the next issue.
