My 2025 resolution is to cut back, at least a little, maybe by a third.
In 2024, I saw 76 concerts total, 9 shows at the Basement East, 8 trips to the Ryman, 8 Jason Isbell shows, 8 festivals, 7 Willi Carlisle shows, road trips to see music in Atlanta, Louisville, St. Louis, Birmingham, Asheville, Oklahoma, Massachusetts, Montana, Brooklyn, & so much more. Since we live in Cookeville, even shows in Knoxville & Nashville feel like road trips.
[Although arguably a festival is multiple concerts all rolled into one, I counted each festival, whether I attended for one day or multiples, as one concert.]
