Nah that would be boring, I am going all in as usual, all or nothing (not this one!) :rofl:

Not the greatest start of the countdown for me - broken string on day 0 and realized I have no spare sets on day 1! :grimacing: well better now than during the night, will just have to switch guitars while I wait for new strings - happy days!

Btw what is going to be the format? Justin introduces a performer and we just crack on or do we nedd to prepare a speech? Post show chat about the performance or we just step aside to give space to another performer?

Youā€™ll be waiting a long time (not this livestream :joy:)

Maybe I should learn the first 4 bars or somethingā€¦ Oh dang, itā€™s in Eb and my Maton is tuned to E standard, canā€™t do it :person_shrugging:

Great comment David.

Practice is the time for pushing your limits.

Performance is the time for playing within them.

In terms of public performance, you are better off playing a simple song well than playing a complicated song badly.

Fair enough Adrian. And I think you put such effort into your learning and preparation that by the time showtime arrives you are in your comfort zone or at least in the swan state ie looking cool, calm, collected as you perform but (maybe) the nerves are jangling, like a serene swanā€™s webbed feet thrashing below the water :joy:

@Richard_close2u Hi Richard, I need to withdraw unfortunately. I hurt my wrist and canā€™t fret anything at the moment. Out of action for at least 3 weeks I think. I will join as an audience member if that works.

Thanks,
Rod

Hi Rod - Iā€™m really sorry to hear that and what a shame for you and the audience. Heal soon and hopefully your hand will be up and at it soon - perhaps for an Open Mic event.

@Richard_close2u
The two polished performances is a bit more than I can commit to at this point. Got a few summer projects I need to get done and the temptation to put them off and spend time practicing would be too great.

Iā€™ll be retiring soon and can then get more involved in these great opportunities.
