All these Wednesday nights spent with Tom Grennan
It has not taken me long to hit four gigs for the year, and only three weeks after I saw Mahalia for the first time at the Enmore Theatre, I ticked off on another artist I would be catching for the first time. This time, it was British pop-rock superstar Tom Grennan, who has become…

Experiencing Mahalia In Real Life
This time last year, I didn’t even know Mahalia. Similar to how twelve months before I saw Mimi Webb in September 2022, I didn’t even know who she was. But upon hearing a song titled “Terms and Conditions” on BBC Radio through the lava.net.au website, I instantly caught on it and that’s how I discovered…

A Saturday night to Remember with Becky Hill
If you’ve heard songs on the radio like “Lose Control”, “Remember”, “My Heart Goes (La Di Da)” and “History” in recent years, then chances are you’ve heard of the British singer Becky Hill. The 29-year-old has become a global sensation and it would not surprise you that she has won the BRIT award for “Best…

One Night with Griff
Just three days into the new year, my first major event for 2024 dawned on me – Griff’s first ever Sydney show, held at the Metro Theatre in the heart of the city. After what had been an uneventful day, I made the hour-long drive into the city, and upon arrival I made a bee-line…

An epic night with Evanescence
If you’re someone like me who grew up listening to the anthemic rock of Evanescence on the radio, then this was the concert for you. Over two decades after they released their debut album “Fallen”, which produced the worldwide number one smash hit “Bring Me to Life” which put them on the rock music map,…

A Supa-Giant weekend to remember!
On the third weekend of June for the third straight year, I did yet another Supanova-GWS Giants double, and easily enjoyed my best weekend of 2023 thus far as I reunited with, and continued to expand, my cosplay community while also enjoying some quality football by the Giants! This year’s edition of Supanova marked exactly…

One weekend, two sports, two clubs, three teams, three matches, three wins!
On the weekend of April 29-30, I was lucky enough to see three of my teams win across two different sports in three different matches! In the week leading up to the 25th AFL Sydney Derby between the Sydney Swans and GWS Giants, which was to be played at the SCG, it came to my…

2023 Newcastle 500
Over three-and-a-quarter years had passed since the Newcastle 500 was last held, and with it being one of my favourite events on the Supercars calendar I was never going to pass up the chance to attend the comeback edition last weekend. I initially bought my ticket for the 2022 event towards the end of 2021,…

An epic night with the Backstreet Boys!
If you’re someone like me who grew up listening to the Backstreet Boys in the 1990s, this was the concert you simply had to attend! 1,258 days after I first purchased my ticket in September 2019, and after three forced postponements due to the COVID-19 pandemic which restricted travel around the world, March 4, 2023…
