Our band played its first show tonight. The crowd liked us! It was probably one of the coolest feelings I have ever had when people shook my hand and told me they liked our music. I can't wait until our next show.

Congrats.

Just asking, what kind of dough do gigs like this pay?

We did not get payed since it was our first show and we were the opening band. My buddy David from system overload said sometimes they make 1k or a little more a night when they headline.
How were the nerves/butterflies? And Congrat's!

So I'm guessing you'll buy a new Camaro with the extra money from the new gig, right?:jester:

Did the owner/manager ask you back? If so, that's a good sign...

Good luck with this, I know it was probably fun for ya...

I was nervous as crap until I hit the first note then I just had fun. I didn't rock out much though because I was concentrating but our singer got into it I was proud of her!

They told us we did good and we brought probably 50 or so people. We talked to the other bands and chilled with them and will set something up with them.
Any video?

I doubt anybody took any video. I don't think a video camera could pick up that sound well. It was pretty loud in there.
congrats man!

our first show was a complete disaster!

keep it up though. remember, ALWAYS HAVE FUN! a lot of bands forget that part.
Yall did good last night
but our singer got into it I was proud of her!
I'd like to get into your singer. Just sayin'.

Im like that sometimes (a little reserved) in big events or competitions and just concentrate and play simple but accurate. I like the smaller events because I feel no stress and rock the fuck out.
