First gig was freakin hilarious ..I was sick ...bass and keyboard died mid way through..drummer walked off ..it went downhill from there Still 1 year later we played Ronnie Scotts/Jazz cafe and got a residency at the Rock Garden...don't sweat it will be fine!

Would be awesome to see a video along the lines of "how to know when youre ready to pursue your first gig, join/start your first band, ect."

Tempered Expectations - are a good way to avoid disappointment in anything. So, we all have immediate control over that. Good tips, thanks

I was on acid at my first gig in a basement and I got a nose bleed for no reason.

9:02, an example of this is that one Radiohead concert where they're in the middle of a song from their kid a album, I'm guessing, and the organ synth stopped working. which lead them to improvise and play creep instead

My band should be gigging at the end of this year, but first I need something better than my tiny 15 watt combo amp😂 However I doubt I have the money for a huge Marshall head and cab bass amp

Marshall do 100 watt combo rigs that might be more ideal for you!
