After we played for 2+ hrs we chatted for awhile..they are playing a gig sat. And really do not want to hire another fill in. Not sure I'll be 100% ready but I should be able to get by so I accepted. After I accepted they said they also do the backing band for an Elvis impersonator on New Year's Eve three sets. All new material for me. We start rehearsing with him next week. Funny how you go from playing nothing just to to CDs in your basement to suddenly full out again. Time to get a 2nd kit now.. : )
Congrats! That is very cool.
