So it only lasted 40 to 45 minutes and there might have been 20 people in the crowd but it was so much fun to play music for people in the flesh.
The gig was one of those where each performer, or group of performers gets an hour on stage. Something I normally don’t enjoy. By the time the act before you gets their stuff off and you get your stuff on there is little time to actually play much. And sure enough we were schedule for 7 but it was 7:30 before the first note was played.
Saving grace was that we were the last act so we got to go past the 8 o’clock end time and drop in a couple of more tunes.
It was this particular configurations’ first “playing out “ so there was a bit of anxiety. Just reminded ourselves to have fun and remember there were not going to be any producers or recording moguls (do we still have those) in the crowd.
Folks seemed to enjoy the tunes and some were even dancing. That’s why I keep doing this.
