Well last night we had a KILLER gig at an outdoor bar, and it definitely made my night. They had told us (a 3pc. blues/psych rock band) that we were guaranteed at least $150. Well we packed the place entirely full and were called on for an encore, but we still only got $150 because there was no cover fee.
So I left, pleased with the show, but a little bummed that we didn't get paid for such a good show.
Well while I was playing a couple of my neighbors showed up with some friends of theirs, and my mom was talking to them all. I guess that my neighbors brother just opened up a new restaurant 30 minutes away and is looking for someone to play acoustic guitar at the restaurant on thursday and friday nights. He was amazed at how good I was and that I am so young (16), and asked if I played acoustic guitar. And ironically I play acoustic guitar and a ukulele.
Im giving him a call this week, and I can finally be playing music I like aside from loud blues all the time, and its just me so I can choose what goes.
ps. I'll be making tips, and will be getting free dinners there
