Every now and then you have one of these nights
where everything seems to be tight and run like a
fine tuned machine. Tonight was one of those nights.
I'd give anything to have an audio recording of the
gig tonight....even more for a video....it just seemed that
nothing could go wrong.

I just got in and still so pumped up that I doubt that
I'll be sleeping for awhile...as a matter of fact, I might just
stay up all night and sleep in tomorrow (or later today).

Life is what you make it!!!

Time waits for no one!!!

Live your life to the fullest!!!

Have a great Sunday!!! :D

Congrats, Its a great feeling. My first gig with new band at the Cove lounge Revere, Ma. was a bike run/pig roast a few months back. I was pumped for days, got a standing O, and people couldn't believe the band formed just a couple months prior. Wish all gigs were like that!!! Same thing though, bummed, no tape or video, just pics and great memory.

Oddly enough, on some gigs where I thought we were terrible those are the ones where everyone seems to be coming up to me afterward and saying how awesome the show was.

That is a great feeling isn't it? We had "that" gig on New Year's. It was in a local hotel so part of our pay was rooms for our families, kids got to use the pool in the afternoon, wives got to party with us for the night and no driving, had a bunch of freinds there too.

For a small time, cover band bunch of middle aged goofballs we sure had a good time.

Same thing as Mike said though, no vid or aud, just great memories and pics for our website.

We are gonna pay a guy to get a good audio recording on 1/23, so we can shop around for more gig venues.
