Blademan_98 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 The Underdogs are finally playing their first gig on Friday. After going through 3 guitarists and 2 singers over the last 8 months, we have got it together and someone is paying us to play! It's a covers band and we have all been around the block After going over the set on Sunday, we just jammed and it all felt good. Hopefully my hand will stay functioning for the whole gig........... I'm one happy chap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blademan_98 Posted December 15, 2012 Author Share Posted December 15, 2012 Well, I have just got in after a really great gig Not note perfect but the crowd was appreciative and we got paid! Went on at nine and had two short breaks finishing at midnight. We actually ran out of songs so we jammed a couple we had been working on in rehearsal and the crowd cheered like mad. My hand is now swollen and painful but it lasted the gig and the drive home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
