The inane ramblings of a thirty something!

Over the past 18 months I have rediscovered my love of music.  Before then I hadn’t totally forgotten about music but it had taken a back seat and was just something to do when I was bored or just in the background. Now, music has return to being an integral part of my everyday life. As an example, I joined Last.fm in November 2009, now six months later I have scrobbled over 20000 songs and that doesn’t include the CDs I have listened to at home or in the car.

Also over the last 18 months I have been writing reviews of the gigs I have been to and the albums I had bought too. This was something that I really enjoyed doing and one of the reasons I started blogging. Over recent months the reviewing has snowballed and now I regularly receive review copies of albums.

With the positive feedback I had received and the rise in my own confidence towards writing I decided I would launch a website solely for the purpose of reviewing music, both live and recorded.

So, without further ado, I would like to introduce you all to my new venture ThisIsNotAScene.com. Here you will find all of my previous reviews, as well as a few new ones I have written recently. ThisIsNotAScene.com is purely a review site, there are many excellent Music News sites out there that more than adequately cover that area so don’t expect the latest happenings to be listed. What you will find is what I think about the shows and albums I have been to and listened to.

I will still continue to write non-music based post here on this blog but all music related post will now be posted on ThisIsNotAScene.com. You can keep uptodate with new posts by following the ThisIsNotAScene.com Twitter account @ThisIsNotA5cene.

I hope you enjoy reading my posts as much as I have enjoyed writing them!
