I’ve often shared with y’all how inspired I am by live music. In fact, if I had to choose between cozying up with a weekly movie or experiencing a great live musical performance on a monthly basis–hands down the MUSIC would win EVERY TIME. Suffice it to say…I’ve missed out on a lot of good movies over the years.
Well with that being said, I’m ebullient about the season that’s upon us. We are on the brink of one of my favorite times of the year. No…not spring, although it’s lovely in its own right. Folks I’m talking about CONCERT SEASON. This is the time of year in the ATL (and I’m sure in your neck of woods too) where there are more shows sprouting up than any one person can feasibly attend. But I pledge to do my best to get as many of them in as I can!
So in doin my music duty to keep you all informed, pull out your calendars and try to keep up!
