dan2112 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 So tonight (wednesday night) is my first proper gig in just over a year and i an't wait! It'll be my first time gigging with a 5 string and i'll be christening my orange/ashdown rig. I'm not nervous or anything as i used to gig with two bands last year frequently but i'm probably forgetting some gig basics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You probably won't know about the new code of practice for live gigs then. If the drummer slows down, it's usual to smack him with your headstock on the back of the head. They immediately know to increase the tempo a little. Best of luck tonight. Have a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTUK Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Hope it goes well. Spare strings, batts, cables and cheat sheets and you're sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan2112 Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 Thanks for the replies guys! I completely forgot about spare battery's. It happens that the last gig I did, I'm playing with the same drummer and he's always bang on so I'm confident there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad it went well, you can't get a better feeling (almost) than having a sound you are happy with and really enjoying the gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
