Thinking Back
Two performances if we're talking about solos and band stuff but two performances are all I have under my belt.
My debut was with Josh and it was Best I Ever Had (Grey Sky Morning) by Vertical Horizon. It was our choir's graduation ceremony for the seniors, a very little affair where choir folks past and present revel among catered thrash and some little dance numbers and skits, the usual in secondary school productions. He was doing the lead vocals and rythm with his trusty Fender acoustic and I was doing back-up and overdriven rythm. Funny how my amp died while we were doing this riff that needed distortion and I started kicking the amp but electronics work in different ways, brute force will not get you anywhere.
My second was in college, I forgot what event it was for but I was invited to do vocals for the guitar club folks. We did Highway To Hell by AC/DC. It was awesome, we had the crowd on their feet and all. But truth be told, I hated the song.
Soon, I am gonna polish my guitar and start performing again! Seeing the audience respond is the BEST feeling any performer can get. Okay unless you're Rod Steward and will only be moved if you see the dollars the crowd's waving at you.
