johnny9fingersSo....did the Abingdon gig.
I played badly, dammit. One of those days where little problems add up and....I carved two Michael Jackson songs (well at least the solos to 'Beat it' and 'Billie Jean') and generally didn't distinguish myself. The wah pedal remained on for the opening to 'Nutbush' which sounded somewhat anæmic. But apart from that, the gig went very well indeed. Good sound & a good audience. The band played beautifully despite my lapses: thank the gods.
Saw Janet and Juan and the kids, who were all in good form.
Gigging on the next two Saturdays, which is good money, at least.
I need to spend two hours a day with the guitar from here on in. Mustn't let standards slip.
Discipline, dammit, discipline.
