Played an impromptu acoustic gig last night at the Porter Celler Bar last night with Ed Ceasar from the Dusty Stars band and some of his friends. quite a lot of fun, we had about an hours practice before hand and then just played the gig. It was a support act for a Bath band called “CuteLoony“. Turned out quite well and some nice comments of randoms. Quite nice to be playing out and about again but playing simple songs with easy parts, not having to come up and polish clever/complex parts to fit in with a band or fill out a sound. Nice to sit down and play the songs and not worry about making the guitar parts good – just play the songs. Few awkward moments playing, the monitor in front of me failed about 2 seconds after we started and for such a small venue I’m shocked how little I could hear without it, had to play a good portition of the set watching other peoples hands/movements, mostly due to not knowing the songs %100 and not being able to hear where we where up to.
Nice evening, few drinks and met some new people, plus it was nice to give the Taylor a run out, it’s been getting rusty sat on the shelf not being played. I’ll see if anyone has any photos, but I don’t think they have.
