thats cool. I have only played out 3 times, and it scares me to death.. I have stage Fright so bad. After one or two songs, it goes away though...

lubbock has coffee houses now? i thought they outlawed those in the 60's to keep the freaks and folksingers out of town. starbucks must have made them acceptable.

all kidding aside, congrats & give 'em heck!

wowsers!

it was ggggreeeeeeeeeeeat!!! Once I started singing the nervousness went away. I'm watching the video my fiance took right now, and I have to say - I am very happy/proud with the way it went. I sounded good, played well, didn't have anything annoying, and really looked (and did) like I had fun.

The best thing is that someone wrote a check for twice the amount we took in cover and gave it to the merch table to give to me at the end of the night. I was SHOCKED!!! It made me very happy to say the least. I hope at some point I can meet that person and thank them in many ways that won't be able to convey how much I appreciated it. But seriously, talk about a confidence booster!

i played for the love, cash, lullaby, and breathe and bleed in that order. 4 songs, 21 mins......but the best experience I could have had. It was GREAT!!!

......and it's all because of the good vibes you guys on the AGF sent me thanks!

Awesome! I've got one tomorrow night and it looks like we're not going to get any rain. Plus I've got The Real Placebos to carry me, so it can't go too wrong

That is great to hear. I was waiting for you to post how it went. I knew you would do great. You have a unique style man, and a genuine passion in your music.

Great...
