A quick review of my cultural outings in 2017. Everything is reviewed! (Sometimes rather cursorily.) Check out my monthlyculture tag.
I am not going to investigate the ticket box, so won't 'fess up to seeing anything more than once. Also, with the advent of e-ticketing, I don't have physical tickets for everything. Come the apocalypse and the demise of the internet, I will have to rely on actual memories. Eeep.
Bracketed figures show range over the last 14 years [eeep! see year-in-summary tag for my Cultural History for over a decade].
Film: 16 (4-20). Best three = Thor: Ragnarok, The Limehouse Golem, Dunkirk.
Theatre: 15 (1-15). Best three = Hamilton, Twelfth Night, Edward II
Concerts (classical): 9 (2-22). Best three = Beethoven 9th Symphony; Ex Cathedra; Bach St John Passion
Opera: 3 (0-6). Best three = well, that'd be all of 'em, then: Elisir d'Amore, Der Freischutz, Il Barbiere
Gigs: 7 (0-9) Best three = Shinedown (supporting Iron Maiden), Hayseed Dixie, Belshazzar's Feast
Books: See 'em all here; reviews here (ongoing: am behind on reviewing).
Also in 2017: moved house; visited Finland, France, Monaco, Spain; two conventions; one bout of pneumonia. No other major changes. Oh, wait: I had a story published in Visionary Tongues/.
