Not going to gigs anymore

prole-art-threat [Edit] [Delete] 12:15, 16 May '08

For a veteren of gigs since 1991 I'd like to think I'm still a music fan even if I barely go to any any more - does your gig 'voltage' make you more a 'committed' fan? No matter what you say you get gig fatigue and sometimes youre chasing the initital buzz of dizzy daft rush of your 'early' gigs which sometimes you can retrieve but sometimes youre just going through the motions - and then there's seeing bands 'for old time's sake' which means you know its time to walk away respectfully. I really don't know how many gigs I've been to, I've lost count and have a 'memory box' rammed with tickets but is it bad that additions to this box will be few and far between and does it mean I'm less 'indier than thou'?
