What a corker of a selection I've managed to make for my third collection of music this year. I like to think it's because I've got impeccable taste in music, but it's rather obvious that I've just got a bit lucky with my selections this time. Even so, it's fabulous ...

I thought I got a good start to my music reviews for the year. Maybe I did, but I've definitely slacked off since, only now managing to push out my second round of reviews. Some good, some average. I've already got more to come, so I'd best press on.
I think ...

Finishing up the gigs of late-May, bleeding in to the start of June, has an interesting mix of bands and genres. In general, it's still good to get out to gigs, but sometimes, if I'm not fully motivated, it can feel a bit of a chore.

Not much seemed to be happening at the start of the year, but it all picked up with a flurry of live dates for good bands at the end of Spring. I can't even get to all of the gigs I want to, but I do my best.

Or maybe 'Music of 2013, part four'. I'm keen to get some more new music and so look through the backlog of bands that I've been interested in for a while, picking up some albums that I didn't get around to buying in the latter part of 2013. But my ...

Only three parts to my year's gigging. I missed a few gigs I would have liked to attend, but made it to others I may not have gone to. I think I've had a pretty good year of live music overall, but it may be getting more difficult to know ...

An actually timely and perhaps final set of reviews for the year, for budgetary reasons. And it's a good end to the year, with some decent albums from new and old bands alike. There's still plenty more out there to listen to as well.
It's been a long wait for the ...

I'm lagging behind on this year's music choices again. I blame my lateness in still not being able to differentiate Ghost Outfit and Gauntlet Hair when they're playing. Or that I am finding it difficult to define either. But I've given it a go. Now I can move on to ...

All I had to do was write up the XFM Exposure night at the Barfly and this post would have been complete back in July. But, no, that was too much like hard work. Still, here it is now.

Sometimes I need a while to fully appreciate an album before I'm ready to review it. Often I'll find that reviewing music can just be a bit difficult without sounding trite. Sometimes I'm just lazy. Whatever the reason this time, I've finally got around to reviewing the second batch of ...
