2012 Gigs

Dec 31, 2012 23:31

A new list that I started on my phone this year... Gigs!

Not just gigs, but live events that I attended that I felt were particularly noteworthy.

Crook and Sourberry are the two bands I performed in this year. They get to go on the list because I technically attended the gigs, I was just on the stage instead of in the audience. The gig on March 3rd marked the first time I actually got paid to sing. That was a pretty awesome feeling. And the people that paid us also came to our gig on 31/5, so we must have been worth paying for.

The fundraiser in May would go on my "Things Of Which I'm Most Proud" list, if such a thing existed. I organised and hosted my own charity event from start to finish, and we raised a total of £4000 for an awesome little charity.
