First gig with new band

Postby Green Manalishi » 02 May 2010, 08:19

So my new band, we've been together for only a few months, played our first gig yesterday. We played at a biker bar called the Screaming Chicken Saloon while they were having a Bike Wash, which included ladies washing the bikes in bikinis.

To give you little insight of this place, there is an outdoor stage, and right next to the stage is a stripper pole!

I was nervous. I hadn't played a real gig for 20 years, since my band after high school played at the Roxy. I've played a backyard party or two, and this was with other guitar players, but this was the first time I've done one as the only guitarist. I guess I wasn't the only one nervous, we messed up a lot.

We ended up playing to about 50 people or so, which was more than I expected. But after I settled in, I had a lot of fun.

We have a shitload of pics, including some "flashing" from the girls in the bikinis, I'll post them once I get them from my friend. He took over 600 pics!

Nope tits and bush can get guys fired at work, can't start down that road. Not to mention also that if any of these girls were not over 18 my ass would be sticking out here with my Host.

If you want to make a web page or a PDF from the pics I will upload it for you and you can link to it.

LOL! I've quit with the supersizing, in fact I've pretty much quit fast food. Found out I was diabetic, and cut out the sugar, and high carb foods, and I've lost over 30 lbs in two months, well, exercise helps too. Still gotta a ways to go, but I'm getting there.

The gig was a lot of fun, and there's pics I am not showing you guys here, a little too much skin showing :tounge

Thanks, I love that guitar. It just rips and is so easy to play, and easy on the back too.
