Ok...so today our band had our first gig....ever...and it went great! We had practice at 12.30 and practiced our line-up of songs that we were to play. We practiced until about 4.30, then we helped our drummer Arby take down his drums so we could get them in this huge a*s trailer that we towed with an Excursion...Then we split up, and my brother and I went to Food Lion to get some water bottles for us while we played... We met up at 5.15 and got at the our friend Krystal's house at 5.30 and we set up since the party was at 6.00. The party was to celebrate Krystal's graduation so it was pretty awesome to play for her. We played a 20 minuted set took a 10 min. break then played another 20 min set. We played what songs we have finished and we played some cover songs too...Here's what our line up was...

Holiday - Greenday
Makes No Sense - Original Intent
Dammit - Blink 182
-riff intro into->
All The Small Things - Blink 182
Tell Me - Original Intent

-Break-

Placebo - Original Intent
American Idiot - Green Day
1985 - Bowling For Soup
Bad Days - Original Intent

So we had a pretty good run. We played really good and we were surprised when we had a few people actually come up to us afterward and ask us to play for their parties and the offered to pay us too... ^.^(We didn't ask for payment since she's our really good friend and it was our first gig)...So it went great! I'm saving up for a new amp now. I'm getting a two-stack which is two cabinets with a seperate amp head on top. It'd be basically the last amp I'd ever need unless something went wrong with it..,The only thing is that the total cost for that amp would be somewhere around $1500.00. Also I need to get a new guitar soon because they just sent out a sort of 'recall' on my guitar that says there's a problem with the internal wiring, but what stinks is that I can't return it for a new one...lol...

Well that's about it for now...Hope everyone is doing great and my best wishes to Temper...Sorry buddy, hope everything gets ok soon!
