17,500 of us packed The Forum in Los Angeles on Friday night to watch Gorillaz and it certainly felt incredible to be back watching live music again. 

If concert ticket prices in LA are anything to go by, I’m not the only one back at live concerts! My three daughters are now old enough to appreciate live music and so I can’t wait to take them to see Lizzo, Katy Perry, and Harry Styles in the next few months. Meanwhile Mary J Blige and Deadmau5 are all future concerts I’ll be going to with my friends. 

It’s a long time since I went to my first concert, Wet Wet Wet, in England back in the 80’s with my dear friend Victoria Briscoe, yet I still can feel the excitement of standing waiting for them to appear on stage when I hear the first few bars of their hit song “Angel Eyes”

Music connects us, transports us, and allows us to escape. 

Music simultaneously creates and brings back memories. 

Music, if you choose, allows you to sing at the top of your lungs regardless how well you can sing (yes, I’m talking about myself here…)

Music creates an uncontrollable urge to dance (or is that just me?!…)

Music when used at work can have a phenomenal impact on how you connect, tell stories, and bring energy to otherwise flat discussions and meetings. 

It’s time to make the most of the power of music.

Remember that Half Time Show?

Want to hear lessons from a jazz club?

How does a musician play with strangers?

Yes, I once went line dancing!

That time when lyrics from a song is all I could share. 

Why not start your Monday talking music?
