Just played my first live show

Veracohr	Date: September 1, 2006 @ 4:40 AM I just got back from playing my first show on a stage ever! It went pretty good, considering I've only been with this band for a week. There was really no one there except the other bands and their girlfriends and one or two friends, but still it was fun.

jewsus	Date: September 1, 2006 @ 1:59 PM cool man. sometimes that's the best way to start. my first was a big show and the second was small. i was freaking out really bad for like a week before it. kinda wish it had been the other way around, small shows help prepare you better. plus you get to fuck around onstage and noone really cares if you look like a moron.
Fraser	Date: September 1, 2006 @ 4:39 PM Awesome
invocati	Date: September 1, 2006 @ 8:52 PM Congrats. Now all you have to do is make it to Carnagy Hall.
hate9wicket	Date: September 1, 2006 @ 9:06 PM Congrats! It could have been worse, my middle finger of my right hand started bleeding on the first song, and later in the set, after hitting the chorus button on my p.o.s. Crate amp, delivering a stupendously loud high pitched impendence wail through the PA(didn't try it in soundcheck, I wonder why we had a different sound guy the next show?) I've watched the vid of that show recently, I can see people reaching to cover their ears right at that moment...

Veracohr	Date: September 1, 2006 @ 10:11 PM Hopefully the pictures my friend took with my camera are okay. I just have to get it back from him. Send some pictures to my mommy.
Jazzmary2U	Date: September 1, 2006 @ 10:45 PM woo HOO! Really.. congrats!
Opossum	Date: September 2, 2006 @ 2:18 AM Good job.
GreatGooglyM...	Date: September 2, 2006 @ 3:33 PM It's always a thrill. IMO the amount of audience doesn't really matter. Whether it was 1 person or 10000 people it doesn't make much difference. The whole performing situation is what makes it exciting. Glad to hear it went well.
Intergalacti...	Date: September 2, 2006 @ 6:49 PM My first gig was in front of my class in school when I was about 6. me and my mate who played guitar stood very shyly in the corner of the room. Recently I played in front of about 300 people. It takes a lot of of patience to start gettin people to your gigs but believe me everyone has got more and more fun as i've gone along and I'm in no mood to stop here. Hope you get some more under your belt and wish you the best
vladb	Date: September 7, 2006 @ 10:13 AM My first show I snapped two strings on my bass and half fell of stage while wearing a wedding dress. I'd like to say it wasn't my greatest moment, but thinking back...
Opossum	Date: September 7, 2006 @ 11:02 AM How did you snap strings on a bass? Never done that myself even when turning all my fingers different colors and they were literally bleeding.
vladb	Date: September 8, 2006 @ 7:55 AM It was a combination of really bad, god-knows-how-old strings, a 2p coin used instead of a plectrum and me being a tad (and by that I mean horrendously) drunk and over-enthusiastic. In an odd way that gig, and its flagrant disregard for the confines of musical taste and talent, really set the benchmark which uncle-mum is still skulking around today…
woodhead	Date: September 9, 2006 @ 1:58 AM WOO HOO KICK BUT AND ABOUT TIME!!!! Congrats Verachor, for a first show sounds about right? wait till you get to weekends in a good club you will love it!!!!
