What is your first real gig?
Hmm??? What is it? I will tell you mine...
It all started in November of 2007. My band and I went to a club called Mojos in Ogden, Utah to talk to some friends of ours who play in a band, Raze. They frequently gig at the place so we thought we should set a show up with them. Long story short, we got the gig.
December 6th was the day of the gig. It was quite amazing! We went on the really small stage and rocked the house! We had around 80 people that night rockin out to the music, so I was well pleased. Not bad for a thursday at a little down-town local music venue eh?

What is your first real gig?
And today's your one-month anniversary of that gig, el josho!
And the first of many, I hope! Congratulations, bro'!
My first gig came after several years of lessons--the son of my drum teacher invited me to sit in on percussion at one of his outdoor summer big band concerts. While "rockin' the house" isn't the right term, it was a big hit with both the big band and with his audiences! That was over a decade ago...and I still do a "Latin Night" concert with his band every year...which has been --and still is--one of the more popular concerts he has each summer.
