Topic: My first public gig as a rythym guitarist!

Lights cameras action!
Im getting pretty nervous - will I make a mistake, hope I don't start all the songs to fast -
The only way I can justify doing this is by saying to myself that it's only three hours.
(And then three hours seems like such a long time)AAARRGGGHHHHHH!!!!

Re: My first public gig as a rythym guitarist!

Hi Ziggy,

Great news to get your first gig. Don't worry about playing too fast just listed to your drummer, it is his job to keep the timing and tempo correct.

As for making mistakes, well it is not that unusual we all do from time to time. The chances are you  may well play a wrong chord at some time during the gig but as long as you play through it I very much doubt that it will be noticed.

'Break a Leg' or as they say here in Portugal 'Muita Merda'
