First Gig (pics)
So, last night, my band "Audioburn" had our first gig.
We're a cover band (I play bass), so we played about 60 songs, played for 5 hours, and it went really really well. Thought I was going to puke at first, but once we loosened up, we rocked the club. Had a kickass turnout too, about 50-60 people who showed up specifically to see us play. We do alot of newer rock songs... Incubus, Hoobastank, No Doubt, Seether, Fuel, Stone Temple Pilots, Weezer, Collective Soul, Shinedown, Lenny Kravitz, Blink 182, Better Than Ezra, etc. Plus some older tunes by the Beatles, Van Halen, Creedence Clearwater Revival, etc. Pics:       Yours Truly:  Anyways, my fingers are fucking killing me, and we've got another 5 hour show tonight... Mike

Re: First Gig (pics)
Damn a 5 hours show? That's crazy. The places around here only let you play for an hour and a half at the most; hell not even major artists (if you can call them all that) play for that long. Kick ass man. I understand the pukey feeling you're talking about, when I played my first show (and only
 ) I felt the same way. But I play drums so I felt a little better because I got to hide behind my drums and the rest of the band the whole time  . Good luck with your show tonight.

Yeah, this was basically the first real show I've ever played... I played in school bands throughout elementary, jr. high, and some of high-school as well as piano, so I've done concerts and recitals before, also, I played drums in a band when I was in high-school, but we only ever played one show for my friends brothers birthday party, and damn did we suck. I still play drums, and I also play guitar alot, I'm actually starting another band with a friend of mine to do some acoustic stuff. I've recorded alot of my own music in the past few years, playing all the instruments, and it's pretty decent, but I don't think I've ever actually finished recording a single song... sounds like all of my projects.
I also just started a new (second) job yesterday as a graphic designer for a local sign company (www.baldwinsigns.com) where I'll not only be designing logos but the signs themselves. I'm in over my head at this point, I have no formal art schooling or any knowledge of sign construction, but I'll pick it up pretty easy. Also still working full-time as a program/production assistant at an electronics manufacturing company. I'm going to be a busy sunuvabitch for a while...

Just got home from the 2nd show. Was way way better than the first, despite the pain... We were way more loosened up, and we worked the crowd alot more. Much more in the groove.
Got paid at the end of the night, which kicks serious ass, and they've invited us back to play again very soon. Well, gotta hit the sack, I'm draggin' ass, and my fingers would probably be bloody if it weren't for all the super-glue I coated them with... I'll post a few more pics tomorrow! P.S. Ami... I really haven't forgotten about your logo, I'm just drawing an absolute blank... can't think of any good ideas for it, but I will try to work on it some more!
