Well, it was more like half a gig. I played my djembe (not drums - unfortunately) in the first two sets with an acoustic duo. The guitar player is absolutely amazing and the singer is fantastic. it felt weird that they actually allowed me to play with them - a guy with no performing experience at all.
I got the following email from one of the guys earlier today:
Mitch, wanted to say thanks for last night. A lot of compliments after you left. Hopefully you felt that buzz of freedom that only music gives because life is so short and to miss out on "that feeling" would be sad.
Now for some "real talk."
Wednesday night at practice I want you to come with no holds barred. Never be afraid to close your eyes and create! If you own the rhythm section, "we will follow your lead."
Here is the pompous truth in a nutshell, Mitch. Our band has more talent and potential than anything going in New Mexico currently. We have fun or we dont play. Timing is everything...
Off to a good start. Send you songs for Wednesday later.
Right now I'm like…. WOW!!!
And to think, I was about to chicken out last night. I'm really glad I didn't.
