Topic: My first live performance.

Some time ago, i think about 3 mos. I wrote of wanting to do a small 2hr. Country music show at our Home Owners assoicians Community building. I finnaly got that worked out and did the show last evening.
Only had 34 in attendance but they seemed to have a good time, as i did.
I was pretty nervous through the first couple of songs but, after that I was fine. Everyone stayed for the entire show, and they were generous with their applause. I hit a few sour notes but, I want to do it again.  bob.

Great Bob.  That's the way it works.  You get over your nerves a couple songs into the set, then you can't wait to do it again.

I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.

Wow.  2 hours for your first show is extremely ambitious and you pulled it off.  Great job!

Thanks guys, i did take a 15 minute break after an hour, but then played another 1 1/4 hours.  A cool thing, my Granddaughter did two duets with me. It was great and I'm anxious to schedule another show. No vidio was taken, I'll have to try and get some one to do that next time.  bob
