Travelling for Music

Description
Hello :) Given recent big concert tours, it feels like the right time to do an episode on 'travelling for music'. It's a subject I didn't think I'd have a lot to say about, given I don't often go to concerts even locally, never mind for travels, but the more I thought about it, the more interesting comparisons and contrasts I could find between my trips. Topics discussed in this episode are: * My first concert (Heavenly, 1992) * The first concert I travelled for (Bon Jovi, 1995) * Travelling to Paris to listen to French singers ... * ... three times * You Look Like Taylor Swift * Other ways of travelling for music [This latter point will be expanded and the episode re-uploaded once I get a further contribution] A PDF transcript of this podcast is available. As always, if you have anything to say about the topic, or indeed about my podcasting in general, leave a comment or let me know. I have a newsletter with extra content, and where I'll be mentioning future podcast episodes if you want to make your own contribution. I also have a Patreon - if you like what you hear, and want to access exclusive content (or just to show your appreciation), then head on over. Contributions in this episode come from: * my old schoolfriend Alistair, * Claire, who blogs at Curious Claire, and * Juliet, who can be found at I Am A Polar Bear Until next time, bye for now. :)

Hello :) I often say "Everywhere Is Interesting", but what do I mean when I say that? What makes a place 'interesting'? Or rather, given any random place in the world, what can make you 'key in' to that location over and above any other? Of course, this could be very personal, or at least...
