So today was the day. First gig. In fact, first festival, too. Excited? Hell yes. Nervous? Definitely.
Pretty good day though in the end...apart from the storms. We certainly picked an interesting day weather-wise...
Think the actual set went okay, minus the first song, meh. But the tent was FUNKY (seriously, it was from funky tents.co.uk or something) and the crowd were good :) Some of the other acts were pretty awesome too (apart from the idiot band who tried to do Killing In The Name when we'd been told countless times fruity language was off limits...how stupid can you get?)
But yeah, even had a dressing room with a STAR ON THE DOOR :') Shared it with the 2 other acoustic acts who were lovely as well :)
Music and general art-ness introduces you to lovely lovely lovely people.
Bless Burty and Ellingwoof (i.e. the manager and publicist) for braving the rain and for coming all the way down to MH :')
Also saw someone we hadn't seen for AAAAAAAGES who we went High School with :) She greeted me with 'I'd forgotten how short you were'. NO COMMENT.
This new Hoosiers song is really growing on me.
Readers, I have sad news however. The Live Music Night at the Piano Room that was supposed to be next week has been CANCELLED due to lack of interest :/
It's so depressing throwing piles of tickets away.
Fingers crossed for a better response at Christmas or New Year?
So lonely tonight. WHERE IS EVERYONE?!?!?!
Really tired and in PAAAAAAIN. Ohh, how we must suffer for the art.
Now just have the charity concert to plan and rehearse for...Saturday 21st, Ullesthorpe blah blah blah FREE blah blah blah THERE'S A BAR.
It'll also be amusing because I think I'm doing sound as well at the moment. Things might blow up, so it might also turn into a free fireworks show.
I think I'll spend tomorrow sleeping and lazing first.
