Last Friday was my first gig guys and my first time playing with a band. I played at a venue called Relay for Life, which had a couple hundred people at it. We played from 7:30 to 9:30 of which many times I didn't even know the song! One of the other guitarists would just yell A-D-E or whatever the song progression was. We covered many songs of which I got to play lead on. And i never once messed up or got lost in the song. So for a first gig, I'd say it wasn't half bad. Not to mention I'm only fifteen. 8)
