Weekend wrap up

So we had our gig this weekend then. So we were way excited and had prepared since November for this. So the weather was crappy and it was cold and we were only allowed to play 20 minutes. To wrap it up, so we were way disappointed in the end. sigh

I guess it was an okay experience. Playing in front of maybe 150 people, at least something. We were way excited to say the least, but about 10 minutes before we were supposed to play someone told us that we could play only 20 minutes at the most. The school couldn't afford to rent the equipment beyond that so we cut our playlist from 11 to 5 songs, which was of course no fun. The worst part was though that the technician was just not capable of doing what he was supposed to do. On stage I could not hear myself at all and I never heared our lead guitarist. Needless to say that playing like this is no fun and extremely hard. Off stage it supposedly sounded okay, only the singer wasn't loud enough. Don't ask my why the technician didn't fix that.

So yep, the experience was okay but we were way disppointed in the end. It just didn't work out the way we wanted it and we had prepared a darn long time for this. We have one more gig though in late June. Hopefully that will be better, since I will leave for the US after that and quit my career as a rockstar. ;-)
