Well gang new year -new outlook on things-----
I'm doing my first gig of the new year tonight
 A ladies club dinner-myself and another guy Phil are doing the gig
good money  :P :P :P

Now my main worry is -shall I wear a black shirt or a blue/red/stripey -open necked or with a tie???

I shall wear my blonde wig and put in my best set of white teeth  :D :D :D :D :D
What guitar will I use ?? The Cobra is the best bet -It sounds great on gigs
better get practicing -mmmeeeee--dohhhhhh---soooooo-fashhhhhhhh-lalalalalaa-
 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Spandex--hahahahaaa-
Black shirt -yeah -everyone wears a black shirt  ;D ;D

Anyway everything went according to plan -considering there was no plan  ;D ;D ;D
The Ladies club the gig was for -was their Christmas get together -ohh and they were all over 60ish
We Started about 10ish(Myself and the other guy Phil)-he plays acoustic and owns the PA-and sings a lot -ballads etc
We were there too early -we arrived at 8PM -the ladies were only sitting down for dinner-
Anyway -I used the Cobra and VoxVT+40 amp -ran the drum machine (SR16)thru the Vox Aux. input and the PA-
So for the whole gig tempo is controlled by the drum machine-
WE started with the usual couple of instros like Yellow bird and Perfidia -to get used to the balance and then did a couple of vocal numbers in the same tempo--
So all in all it was a good gig -finished at 12--got another gig out of it -so that speaks for itself-
No photos /vids or sounds -too much of a distraction(your inclined to divert your attention away from the gig)
Ohhh yeah I wore a blue shirt (with button down collar)  ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
Attached below is kinda the list I used on the night -it's handy as a fall back
Called up lots of singers -that more or less makes peoples night complete.
I even first time ever told a few jokes - :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\
I will leave jokes to the comedians
