As a conclusion to this blog, I have come to realize that Newcastle does have a very present and alive music culture no matter what genre. When thinking about what is underrepresented in the media, local Newcastle music isn’t on a national level, or even state level, however, there is a very strong representation in the local media circuit. Without actually looking for information about gigs, events and bands – this task has made me realize it that you stubble across this information readily all over the city. Little posters, magazines dedicated to local gigs and the presence of live music in general is everywhere. I truly think there is a strong connection between the community and the music world here in Newcastle and that makes me very happy to see!
I really love Newcastle’s music scene, I have been a massive consumer of the local music scene, and a happy one at that. Until my next blogging adventure…

yes, I think Newcastle’s music scene is very big, too. It is supported by many kinds of forms of media that is fit to the media level of Newcatle and it affects other major cities’ music scene, too.
