Do you have FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out)? Seems like everyone has it to some degree these days. And now, with Facebook and Twitter, fear easily transforms into pain. Allow me to explain.
In the last few weeks, there's been an onslaught of stadium shows rolling into Vancouver. Good shows too. Neil Young, Leonard Cohen, Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney. Guess what? I missed them all! Let's just say the tickets were a little rich for my student budget. So, instead of being at the show, I got to watch photos roll in all night from my friends who were actually there. That's the pain part. My advice? Whatever you do, do not look at your social network feeds on the night of the gig you didn't make it to--your FOMO levels will shoot through the roof!
Hope you can tune in to today's show, I'll have tracks from Bahamas, Woodpigeon, Ladyhawk and more.
And for anyone who's missed a concert because they didn't know it was even happening, try Concert Sherpa or Bandsintown Concerts to help you keep track of all the live gigs in your area.
