I track all my gigs on setlist.fm. You can also see a list of the festivals I’ve attended.

Going forwards, when I go to a gig I’ll blog about it.

Favourites

  1. Radiohead @ Glastonbury, ENG 2017

Headlining after Royal Blood and The xx on the first day of my first Glasto AKA The Greatest Day of My Life.

  1. Paul McCartney @ Glastonbury, ENG 2022

I saw a fucking BEATLE, plus Dave Grohl and Bruce Springsteen.

  1. Björk @ Bluedot, ENG 2022

An artist of the highest order, doing an orchestral set. She remoulded my world into hers.

  1. Arctic Monkeys @ Benicàssim, ESP 2007

First-ever festival, with the band of my generation on peak form.

  1. Elton John @ Glastonbury, ENG 2023

Rocketman’s final ever UK show, and it’s hit after hit after hit.

  1. Confidence Man @ Barrowlands, SCO 2022

They’re just the most fun live act you will ever see. Top-tier dance pop.

  1. Laura Marling @ Albert Hall, MCR, ENG 2021

A breathtaking intimate solo show post-pandemic, an angel from a better world.

  1. Justice @ Glastonbury, ENG 2017

What a way to close out my first Glastonbury. They are cool MFs.

  1. The Chemical Brothers @ Glastonbury, UK 2019

Superstar DJs, here we go!

  1. The Maccabees @ Albert Hall, MCR, ENG 2016

As part of their final album tour. They split up the year after, and I’m still sad I didn’t see them more.
