2023 Gig Reviews

  • Nashira Haston

I love seeing music live. Like really love it. Love it so much I basically spend all my salary on it.

When it came to the end of 2023, it felt like I had been to a lot of gigs. But I wasn't sure how many, or if I even remebered them all. So I started going through my phone to see which ones I had been too. Turns out I had seen 25 bands live.

So I compiled them all into TikTok and decided to review them. Which venues I enjoyed, if the bands played my favourite songs and if I cried spoiler alert, I cried at a lot of them).

Since uploading to TikTok it nearly has 1,000 views just through organic growth.

This year I hope to surpass 25, did you want to join me?
