Welcome to Manchester Loves Music!

Alright?!
Now then, I have been scratching my head for a while about whether or not to start my very own, unbiased, informative and pretty damn cool blog on the wonderfully beautiful music scene in my very own City of Manchester; I turned 30 the other day so I thought f*ck it, I'll give it a go.
I love good music. Anything from Elvis to Elton (kind of. well, just Rocketman really!). My first gig was.... wait for it..........
Bryan Adams! I know. My old man has a lot to answer for there right?! It was during his "Waking up the Neighbours" tour around '92, and I never looked back! The gig was something I’d never experienced before. Right there, in front of me, was the guy that had the record for keeping hold of the number one spot (yeah, the charts were good once). After that gig I needed to see more. Luckily for me I live in the best city in the UK for live music. I know I know, London is good too but it just isn't Manchester. I spent most of my youth at the Academy and the Apollo, but I just missed the Hacienda scene with New Order etc etc in the 80's, but was bang on time for the revival of decent rock and roll in the early 90's in the form of Oasis and (arguably) changing the face of music for that generation. Now don’t get me wrong, this isn't an Oasis blog, or specifically about Manchester bands. What I want here is to share decent music, share your gig experiences, use it as a platform to review a gig or even to promote your band. I don’t care about the genre; I just want to help the world understand why Manchester Loves Music! See what I did there?
