In the beginning, there was a concert...

I've been wanting to start writing about music for a while but have never gotten either the motivation nor the idea that seemed right.  After a good friend started his own blog discussing albums that impacted his life, I got inspired and started thinking "Hey, maybe I should do something like that..." I don't want to bogart someone else's idea, so I put the idea away until I could find something unique.

And then it hit me.

In my life I've been to 150+ live concerts; I've been to festivals, large venues, small venues, someone's basement in Allentown.  Each concert was special for different reasons, and I remember all these bizarre little details that most normal people would've forgotten; coupled with my anal-retentive scrapbook of every ticket stub and show flyer that I ever attended...I realized I'm on to something.

At the least I'll get the enjoyment of putting this stuff to writing.  Maybe others will share their experiences.  Who knows.  I will most likely start chornologically and bounce around from there as the spirit moves me, and I'll throw in random musical musings and reviews in due time.  Hope you enjoy.
