fans<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>THE men\nbehind Minty\u2019s Gig Guide and Cardiff Music History have come together to launch\na project looking at the city\u2019s musical history.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Daniel Minty\nand David Taylor have announced that they are launching Hand Stamp, a\ncollection of historical stories and anecdotes about gigs and events in the\ncity from 1960 onwards. <\/p>\n\n\n<p>In an announcement on Twitter, <a href=\"https:\/\/jomec.co.uk\/thecardiffian\/2017\/11\/07\/putting-cardiffs-live-music-venues-map\/\">Minty\u2019s Gig Guide<\/a> said the project would via short documentaries celebrate pivotal points that have helped pave the way for some of the world\u2019s biggest artists and propelled local artists forward.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Minty\u2019s Gig\nGuide is an online guide and podcast about gigs and events happening in Cardiff,\nrun by Daniel Minty, 30, from Roath. <\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\nbasically came to the idea that, in this current climate, we\u2019re seeing the\nclosure of so many spaces,\u201d Daniel tells me. <\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cPeople love\nnostalgia, people love to look back, and people love to see and hear about the\nthings that they may have been part of 10, 15, 30, 40 years ago. <\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe thought\nthat it would be an apt time to start a project like this where we cast out the\nrods and collect stories from particular pivotal moments in time of shows that\nhave happened here in the city and the stories that come with that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\"
