great to be back to live gigs, I know a few have been recently, but it was truly great to be back experiencing live music, all 3 bands made reference to it

incase anyone is interested, went to the Colston Hall ( 02 ) to watch Reef

Got my first gig since before covid on Thursday- Gary Numan at Cardiff Uni.
Bit apprehensive about it if I'm honest.

I've been to a couple, theatre as well. And shops & football. It's like it never happened for most people. Mask wearers in the very small minority.

Saw Only Fools in the theatre in London last week. Packed full and not a mask in sight except on the staff running the bar / ushering.

People stood shoulder to shoulder on packed tube trains. And the Wales game the other week was a CCS sell out. No way of avoiding a crowd.

My mrs was a bit aswell ( she will still occasionally wear a mask in the supermarket ) ,but this gig put it all behind her, the lucky ones who survived these past years should live life to the full and enjoy it ( of course if you have health issues this doesn't apply to you and you should still be wary / careful )

I was surprised to see all the signs are still the Colston hall ( apart from the one at the entrance ) even as you walk in, the history wall is still as it was 3 years ago

The last part does apply, hence the apprehension.
Gotta get out at somepoint I guess but the enclosed feeling of the Great Hall doesn't help.
I'm sure I'll be fine 🤪
