Welp, after six months of semi non-productive practice, the band and I are gonna play our first gig. No planned set list, I guess we're gonna wing it. I'm a little nervous because I'm not happy with a couple of my solos (we play originals), and I get kinda tense in front of audiences. Wish me luck!

Re: First gig Friday night!
Don't drink to much and always walk up on stage like you're the **** no matter how good you really are, if you keep a coky attitude you'll just feel like the stage is your second homeI've fallen, Fallen through. If I'm Not With you, All I wanna Do Is Feel blue -

Re: First gig Friday night!
Yes. Have a good time. Just remember that you are your own worst critic. Most people do not notice if you screw up, especially with originals. Just have fun. That is what it is all about. The babes, and parties just come with the territory!!1990 Jackson Professional

Re: First gig Friday night!
The music ranges in style... We have some metal stuff, ballads, alternative stuff, and 70's jam style stuff. It's all over the place. All the material was written before I got the job, except for my parts (coming up with solos is a pain in the ass!) Eventually I would like us to sound like a heavier old Aerosmith, or something to that effect.Comment
