Thats right!, no longer a virgin. Played out for the first time tonight, and it was awesome! Just did an open mic night, but still was a rush. All the guys in my band have been playing out on and off for like 10+ years so it wasnt a huge deal for them, but it was pretty Fing epic for me. oddly enough i didnt get butterflys at all. Ive been practicing my ass off and had complete confidence in my instrument which i think helped a lot. I was a little stiff at first, but still played well and after about 30 - 40 secs i loosened up a bit a started moving more and felt right at home. Went great, in fact id go as far as to say we rocked! Well just wanted to share my excitement with my EB family. And of course post the pics.

PS: Thats not our drummers kit, we're patriotic and all but dont normally rock a star spangled drum kit. very cool of the dude to share his kit so our drummer didnt have to pack his up though.

Well done, there's nothing quite like it is there? Exhilarating yet strangely terrifying all at once :D
