Auditioning tomorrow - I hope I get the gig!

[coolrunner989]

I'm auditioning for a local cover/original rock band tomorrow night and it would be a huge improvement for me. They are already established, play shows at least twice a weekend. I'd make more than twice as much as I do working for the U parking lots, which means I could afford some new bass gear and pay my bills lol.

Just wanted to share my enthusiasm with my TB brethern and wonder if anyone has some tips - I feel pretty confident but I dont have a whole lot of experience with this. I've only been in two other semi-serious bands.

Peace

GL with you audition. I might be one of the few that actually enjoys auditioning. I like to meet new players and jam with them. Just relax and be yourself. Enjoy the process.

In minneapolis or atlanta? What's the name of the band?

Minneapolis - I suppose I'll let you guys know the band if I make it :P
