Our band's first gig
 

So, after years of playing on and off our band, 'Sucks to be You', finally got our first gig. It was a pretty impromptu one as well. Our guitarist and singer plays bass in a friend's band and the act they were supposed to be supporting pulled out. So they became the headliners and we were the only band available to support them.

Thankfully it was just a small pub and not like people had turned up to see great music, or a particular style of music. The guys were still nervous (I was a little); the drummer played everything a little too fast and, as a result, little mistakes were made by the guitarist. Nothing major beyond one screwed up solo (not featured) But I'm pleased with our performance.

Now for the videos

Awesome

Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles theme (the UK version)

Unfortunately there are not any yet of me on lead vocals (I'm the guy on bass on the left) and the TMHT theme has a couple of mistakes since, due to the drummer speeding everything up and lack of inbetween song banter, we needed to fill more of our timeslot and thus pulled out a couple of less-rehearsed songs.

You'll notice the videos sometimes start late or finish a little early because it was done by our drummer's dad. So he obviously didn't know when we would start the next song before it was too late. And he also wanted to move around and get his son in shot and not blocked by the guitarist :P

Any feedback welcome.

VERY COOL!

Something to be proud of indeed. :tgrin:

Thanks, MadPirateBunny!

I don't know if other people have bothered looking at this thread but here's another vid.

This is one I actually sing but that was not my best performance :ohwell: I think the camera picked out my voice a little too well. Shame/good thing the video starts with the second half of the first verse.

Edit: And another one for good measure...

My vocals are again maybe a tad too loud but at least I'm only doing backings. Song was way too fast.
