What's your biggest passion Rugby or music. Not a trick question you just seem to love both so much.
Music just, never really disappointed with a gig, but watching Trin........ I 'm slowly but surely losing my love for RL, admittedly it was an age since but I've done midweek games at Widnes in the fog and given up weekends away watching Trin, not now.

Similar to yourself, more RL than Trinity though who I'm loving at the moment. Will always turn up for the home games which is what really matters

I feel the same - I go to more gigs now than I have done since my late teens - early 20's, and it's a constant joy, unlike RL, or just about anything else I do with my leisure time. I would pick a gig over a match any day of the week.
I heard Billy Bragg speak with his usual eloquence about the resurgence of live music the other day, and it really resonated - basically, there is a deep human need for communion and shared experience, and a gig is a rare opportunity to connect with a musician who speaks to you, in the company of a room/hall/field full of people who feel the same way. I love it, and it never matters to me that I'm one of the oldest people in the room - I go with my daughter quite often, and we always have a whale of a time - especially since I've brainwashed her from a young age into liking actual real music, where people play instruments and sing with their own voice.

I too am a big fan of music, was supposed to go see Justin Bieber last year, until he cancelled the tour date, was absolutely gutted Very similar feeling to missing out on that top 4 last season...
I`m hoping to see him release some dates this year now Selena has dumped him
