Using email receipts and photos I've managed to find most gigs ive been to since 2007, logged them and aligned them to the photos I took. I've also brought my annual year end music blogs and spotify playlists from each year that I have - 15 years of reviews and tracks - Enjoy!

Paddy's Gig Log
Every show I could find a ticket for, from Anathallo at the Borderline in 2008 to whatever's on next week in Brooklyn. Festivals and club nights are logged as events but kept out of the band stats, since nobody remembers exactly who they saw at Gov Ball.
Tap any name for that artist's page: every time I've seen them, photos from Instagram, and where they turn up in my albums of the year.

Brooklyn Steel · BrooklynAlways fun seeing Jack. Especially in a relatively small venue. Will continue to be annoyed these are the only photos we’re allowed to take though.

Jack White is doing last minute, small club shows on this tour and I was very lucky to get tickets to 800 capacity White Eagle Hall, Jersey City. He was in fine form, new album is fantastic and it was amazing to see him in such a small space. Very lucky boy. 😲

Two nights in the company of a god. I don’t like to put artists on a pedestal but I’m making an exception. Two very different sets between the small show Monday and the bigger show Wednesday, both brilliant. Only regret is I should’ve done Tuesday night too. Legend. #jackwhite #livemusicnyc #livemusic
