I just finished my final* equipment check to make sure everything works together. Works great; I'm ready to start gigging

*penultimate; I still have a feedback check to perform, but should work well

Supposedly playing a short set with the trio at an outdoor event later today. Yes, there's a small covered stage, but there are very large thunderstorms in the forecast, and there's no way the stage will be adequate cover in a downpour. Remaining hopeful the storms will skirt around our immediate locale, but realist me doesn't even want to bother loading his gear in the car. #Gigging #Musician #GearSquad #Precipitation #OhWell

This is a more modern one. This is from when I returned to gigging after about 10 years, in 2018.
I don't really know why I stopped at the time. I just didn't. I kept playing and writing though.
This was my return, playing a lovely little venue in Galway called De Burgos.
It's basically an underground cellar. It has lovely atmosphere. I love it.

I think this was Galway Fringe 2018?
Maybe.

A photo from the back of a crowd in a small, intimate venue. Almost cave-like. There's a man well lit at the front of the room performing songs in a guitar. He's partially obscure by silhouettes of people.

I bought some proper in ear monitoring the other day. Does this mean I'm a proper musician now? #liveMusic #gigging #guitar

Another throwback.
This guitar was an Ovation Tangent TK-57. It's still knocking around.

I opened for a friends band and another band headlining.
They were another metal band, "Twilight of Harmony". They were succeeded by 2 better bands.

This was probably 2006/2007. You can tell from my clothes, which, I can assure you was the height of fashion at the time. Don't look it up. Take my word for it.

This makes it look like I'm left handed, but it's just a flipped image.

This was my first gig about 17/18 years ago.

I played support for a band that I went on to be the frontman of. That guitar is still played, with a few more scrapes.
It was a burgeoning, flourishing music scene. A ready-made community.

That's when I first heard the feedback "I like your songs. I'd love to hear them with a full band". Yet to be done, but still could be.

A pretty low res image of a much younger me, playing an acoustic guitar. It appears I'm left handed but its just the image is flipped.

Am really looking forward to properly #gigging this band live now. If anyone has any suggestions for #UKgigs, or has some friends they can have a whisper in an ear, let us know :)

Ozzy on Returning to Live Shows: “I’ve Gotta Do More Gigs if I Have to Get Someone to Wheel Me Out There”

ChatGPT making things up about the article:
Ozzy Osbourne is back and ready to entertain his legions of fans! Despite not feeling as healthy as he used to, Ozzy declared that he has to do more gigs and will get someone to wheel him out there if needed. The pandemic was tough for Ozzy, who had to cancel his tour and endure various health issues. But he remains determined and dedicated to his fans and is ready to rock on!

Chatting with musician mates...

... One day you're 16, nonchalantly hefting Carlsbro cabs around by yourself, unloading at 3am in the rain after driving back 80 miles after a gig.

... and the next you're Hans Moleman and you have to get a friend round to help you move a medium-weight keyboard. And your hernias have hernias.

I thought I'd never get old.

I’ve not been doing pub covers gigs much because whilst the money is good they can be quite draining. However I played a city centre pub last night and had an ace time. Two hours of singalongs and dancing. It’s not as rewarding as doing originals shows but it can be a lot of fun when it’s right. #livemusic #gigging #musician
