Every musician remebers that first gig. Your palms sweating butter flys in
your stomach.
My first gig was I was 15 we played at a pool party with 3 other bands . I
was nervous as hell until the first note then I was fine. This was back in
the late 80's I think the first song we played was Dokkens Tooth and
Nail, yeah the solo was fun 
I remeber getting an instant date that night

| In 1973.I was 13.It was a party for some kid at our junior high.I remember
we did "Stairway to Heaven","Listen to the Music" and "Us and Them",I don't
remember what else.When the parents came home someone had told them we had
a guitar case that had some beers in it,so they checked and all they found
were empty cans,so they made us quit. ____________________

Hmm, my first would have been a school charity concert, I managed to get a
band together and have 6 songs rehearsed in 1 week, wasn't great, but what
did they expect for 20p a ticket
We did some Paul Weller and other early to mid 90's stuff, and they this
ego merchant called Charlie took over solo. He was awful, so I yanked his
lead out of the amp and got the biggerst round of applause of the whole
night.
I also nearly killed Charlie after he slammed my SG down on the stage on
it's back, doesn't do them much good with that angled headstock. Threatened
to shove my hand down his throat and castrate him from the inside.
The moral of this story:- Don't mess with another mans axe, especially if
it's a brand new one! ____________________

My first and only gigs have been recitals held by my teacher, I was usually
the best there. I don't have a band...yet.
