Hi Everyone,

I hope you are all keeping safe and well and are looking forward to Christmas.

Does anyone have any plans to go to any Gigs or Music Festivals next year? I see the Line Up for Reading and Leeds festival got announced today.

    Hi @csno01 I haven't been to too many gigs or festivals in my lifetime, despite enjoying music, so no plans at present. 

    I did see Artic Monkeys were announced as part of the line-up :)

    Yes, they are a great band and Have done very well for themselves, hence they were the first band to be discovered via the Internet. 
    For me personally, I think their first two records are the best.

    @Annabel , what music or artists do you like?

    Hi @csno01:) 

    I do enjoy attending a few music gigs, but I haven't purchased any tickets for next year. I think I'm just going to wait until I feel comfortable to book them again. Are you interested in going to either Leeds or Reading? What type of music do you enjoy?

    Bizarre mix,anything and everything,80's/90's Jamiroquai,Kravitz,George Michale,Sinatra,classical music.I like Arctic Monkeys,Snow Patrol,Bowie,Rolling Stones,Fleetwood Mac,Janis Joplin,Hendrix,Marley.Have watched festivals on TV and found them great.Looking to buy a cd player(my old faithful one has finally died on me) I find music is a great distraction from pain and elevates mood when feeling unwell. Unfortunately my music is on CD's,yes I am a behind on tech and a bit old school but looking to buy a new cd player.
    What music do you like csno01?

    You have good taste. 
    I wouldn’t worry about being old school Annabel. That’s good. Some people still listen to music on vinyl, I dont, Istream all my music on Spotify. 
    My tastes range from the Beatles right the way through to Grange. I am also a big fan of Britpop, and the new stuff such as Stereophonics, when they were new LOL. 
    I tried to keep up with this stuff and identify a new artist each year, although for the past couple of years, I have struggled to achieve this. 
    You are definitely right in what you say. Music is a great source of the mind, body and the soul.

    I am considering, although there are only a couple that I really like on the lineup next year. With regards to the current situation, we will just have to wait-and-see I guess.
    I enjoy most music, from the Beatles the present day. How about yourself?
