Evil Undead Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 Turned out ok in the end, the power came back on and stayed on, and we had a few up dancing by the end. Phew. My gear made it home in one piece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Vincent Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Glad it turned out ok.Generally,just excercise common sense,and handcuff the bass to yourself when you're not using it.We've all got handcuffs,right?

Evil Undead Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 Right, I'm a bit more awake now so I'll give a bit more of an update. We got there and started setting up all the gear, and the power went out - thought it must be the weather at first but turned out to be a trip switch, so we had to go through everything one by one and find out what was throwing the switch. Turned out to be a set of disco lights so thankfully that was resolved. First set was really weird. We played well but no one was dancing and only one person clapped, and that was a strangely dressed rough looking dude right in front of the stage, so we felt a bit awkward thinking that no one was enjoying themselves. Second set started in the same way, but about half way through an extremely drunk woman started dancing (of a fashion), and then for our last few songs a few more drunk women joined her, and they were singing along too so that was nice. And at the end, the crowd were shouting for more Strange gig, but very enjoyable, and a good first experience of playing an outdoor gig.
