This page is linked to my personal journal; it is a list of musical events I've attended or performed in since I started keeping a journal (November 1998). The list was becoming too large to include along with the current jounal page, so I've split it off.

The list is chronological, newest on top.

Click on the date to go to the journal entry for that performance.
