With no gigs in nearly over a year since the COVID-19 pandemic started, I started looking back on my gig tickets and created a new almost daily post on Twitter, #gigoftheday.
This is a snapshot of all gigs that I have been to over the years in month of April.

Missed out on seeing these guys in 1994 but this gig made up for it.

Having seen Nirvana in 1992 was curious to see what the tribute band were like. They weren’t bad.
First time seeing Therapy? do an acoustic set. One of the best gigs I have seen them do.

A bittersweet moment as this would be the last time I would see Chris Cornell live who sadly died in 2017. RIP Chris.
