Dawoogsta Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 I played my 1st gig in, what must be, 16 years, on Wednesday. Dont think i've ever been so nervous in my life, but it went well and we went down a treat!!! Nerves subsided after about 4 or 5 songs!! Can't wait to do it all over again. Quote
phil.i.stein Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 good on ya ! it always pisses me off that it takes a few songs to 'settle in'. it's like half of the set is over before i'm actually enjoying it. ..more gigs needed. Quote

JTUK Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 I am always surprised how many people never get out there. Glad it went well...onto the next one Quote

We've got an 'audition'gig in Whistlebinkies on 25th October in Edinburgh. Apparently they get 3 bands in for 40 min sets, and if they like yer they ask yer back for a 'Proper' gig.... Quote
