Hi everyone,

Some time ago I told you I would soon have my first gig..... well I did !
Because I was announced as a special quest I had to wait for quiet some houres before I could play 7 songs.
I was very relaxed, so much my right hand almost didn"t move at all.

However I managed to play along with the band and played a solo in every song.....
and my friends told me it sounded quiet good. The public even danced to it... so we had a lot of fun... except for the long waiting.
At least it brought me, I think, a nice picture , beside the expierience.

Ps sorry I don't get a photo into this message.

Well you've went and done it. Not your going to want to do it again and again and again etc.... I'm happy for you in all ways. Getting to play is really special to me as well. I just can't get enough of it. All the best to you.
