It was my new year's resolution for 2013 to keep a log of all forms of live music that I experienced throughout the year. My list has some inevitable missing pieces, but for the most part, I've kept up consistently. I hope to continue my focus in music writing in 2014 and begin composing something lengthier than my normal blog posts. Thank you to all of the artists who gave me their time for interviews and copies of their music in advance. Thank you to all of the people who have looked to my tastes and opinions as a source of reference or referral. Thank you to everyone who has given my blog as much as a quick glance. It is very gratifying when I am able to have the opportunity to get to know someone through their music. Looking forward to where my 2014 will take me career-wise, as well as what's in store for local music and Keep Albany Boring.
