Muv's 2010 Gig Memoirs

On this page I will review gigs gone by, possibly even some from my youth ... although those may seriously damage my street cred.
Maybe I'll stick to the ones from last year, which is when we started getting really serious about gigging, and my bank manager started getting palpitations!

Going to gigs is not a cheap do these days, especially if you're paying for yourself and your kids.  We haven't had a holiday for a couple of years now as the kids would rather spend my money on going deaf than having a nice break somewhere hot.  My credit card is currently maxed out because of the Download Festival and so no holidays are planned for the forseeable future.

The gigs we went to last year are listed below - there are videos on YouTube here >>Aimee's Videography and when its a bit quiet on the current gig front I will review some old ones.
