Got to putting my card details in for Prince at the Electric Ballroom before deciding to be an adult and not borrow money from my Mum for rent that month. Terrible idea.

Or, spending about £300 on tickets and a hotel to see The Knife press play on a CD player and have some students dance on a stage

Didn’t go to see R.E.M. a second time (Loch Lomond, 2005) because they were touring Around The Sun and I’d completely fallen out with them for releasing that turgid excuse for an album

Didn’t go to see Lou Reed on the Berlin tour (Edinburgh Playhouse, 2008) because it was around £50 a ticket, I wasn’t earning much at the time and that seemed very steep

Only seeing the last song or two of Jay Reatard’s set in 2009 because I got the times wrong. He died the year after.

Not seeing R.E.M. any of the eight times they played in Ireland that I could realistically have gone to. Thought I’d gone off them. What a fucking idiot I was.

Could have seen radiohead play a gig in a tiny venue just before they released The Bends but i passed cos i had promised this girl i really fancied that i would walk her to a fireworks display that night.

The gig was apparently amazing and the girl, a few months later, ended up going out with my brother.

Saw them do that show at an Irish festival right after David Byrne and St. Vincent played one of the best sets I’ve ever seen. I thought the Knife’s set held its own but I was also just after massively coming up on pingers between the two sets so who can say?
