When I go to see a band they're usually unsigned and you get to meet them afterwards which is great but sometimes I'll go to see a band a lot and build up a bit of a rapport with them, you know enough to buy each other a drink and chat for a bit before or after their set and once an invite to an afterparty (yay). Sometimes though I feel like they might think I'm a 'hanger-on' as it were but all I really want is to hear good music, I don't really have anything else to offer except my appreciation of the music anyway. I feel very lucky to have been to the gigs and to have met some of the people through getting to know bands ie: Carl Barat and Roger Sargent (the guy who took the Picture on the cover of the eponymous Libertines album amongst other things) that's just not the point for me but sometimes I get looks from other people there who think that's what I am (sodding image conscious scene).
I'm on a journey (a magical mystery tour if you will) at the moment and I'm just going to see where it takes me by being more positive and having fun.
