Counting up 2003
« on: December 23, 2003, 09:58:00 pm »
So I just did a tally and figured out that I went to 73 shows this year. (Wow!) How about you?

Wow - 73. What venue did you see the majority of the shows? I counted 22 from the scribble in my calendar. I used to get a zillion free pocket calendars from businesses...Maybe 9:30 should make little calendars.  :p

Probably in the 70-80 range too.  I didn't keep track all that well, but I try to average once a week.

Well I managed to find 26 tickets stubs..... But I guess that is just the start of it. There were, on top of that, about 5 velvet Lounge shows, 2 Mojo shows, 2 iota shows, 2 shows in NY. Plus a handful of shows I went to that I didnt get advance tickets. I figure I managed about 45 shows. The most I have ever seen in a year. It would have been more if the last couple of months hadnt been so quiet.
 
 Still it looks like the new year promises to be Britpop peppered. I cannie wait.

I'd guess in the 40-45 range.  Maybe next year I'll keep track.

I'm at 50 - 55.  I think one of my most active years to date, though I had some good runs in the early 90s.   ;)
 
 Hoping 2004 includes some shows with forum folks...I missed  40 shows in 2003 that were in my calendar that I was too pooped to party for, or couldn't rouse anyone to go (though I will go alone, but I have to be in a good mood!).
