Music has always been a massive part of my life. I studied it at university and went on to build a career around music. So it' s quite shocking that I can't remember the first ever concert that I went to! But that's more to do with the fact that my mum has been taking me and my sister to music events since we were tiny. Unfortunately though my mum also can't remember the first concert that she took us to.
I have a very eclectic taste when it comes to music and I love live music events and have been very fortunate to have gone to so many events during the course of my life, and it's one of the things I missed most during the lockdown period.
What was the first concert you ever went to and how was it?
New Kids on The Block! That's right guys I was a Blockhead! Haha! I may have been about eleven and I saw them in Seattle with two other friends about the same age. Two of the moms took us. That was the first time I'd ever been to a concert and while I wasn't too close to the stage, It was the closest I'd ever been to any of my idols. I felt so grown up and it was all so exciting. My musical tastes have since changed - alot - but the New Kids will always be special to me.
