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!
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.
Busiest year: 2025 with 38 shows. 2020 has just one: New Colossus in March, the week everything shut down. Everything else booked that year was cancelled.

Every year-end list from the blog, ranked the way Paddy ranks them: by how much each record actually got played.
Artists who made the list in three or more years.
One page per artist, with every gig in date order, photos and clips from Instagram where I posted any, and their appearances in Albums of the Year. Festivals and nights out get a page per event series.
Squid were mind bendingly great last night. Was worried they'd be too twiddly but holy moly, couldn't be further from the truth. Amazing musicians, all changing roles throughout, crazy compositions and tons of fun. Definitely someone to experience live. #squid #mercurylounge

Baffled but happy that Squid went from 200 ppl at Mercury Lounge for album 1 to 1800 at Brooklyn Steel album 2. Only because I don’t hear of them anywhere in the US! They deserve it though, really really clever and entrancing live. 10x better than the record. #squid #nyc #bk #livemusic
