Concerts are my favourite way of experiencing music. Yes, listening to every aspect, every layer of the production is fascinating, but there's nothing better than hearing songs from the mouth that wrote them in a room full of people who feel the same.

The live music module stood out to me most during my Foundation Diploma, in which I was part of an events crew that took part in several college events throughout the year. The small qualification gave me live setup experience and it means that now, when I go to concerts, I find myself watching and observing the crew in-between sets (& after the show) and keeping a mental note of what they do & how, and I always make sure to talk to the FOH sound engineers at concerts when I have the chance. It is truly interesting to see how different productions work from my perspective as opposed to the average concert-goer. 

Now, as an BA Event Management Student, I see things not only from a production point-of-view, but from an operations and safety management side too, and I'm sure that by the end of this course, I'll know them like the back of my hand.
