Glad that me being told off like a 6 years old by my guru made you learn a thing or two chaps, anytime :joy:

consider it taking one for the team :grinning:

I didn’t view it as being told off, merely pointing out that like we all do we start apologizing first.

Being part of a great lesson with your guru helped more of us . Thank you

I’m in the exact same situation Trond, and I’m not going to be able to pick up the guitar today. I’ll be crunching tomorrow trying to not have a breakdown :sweat_smile:

You beat me to it Toby, I had all cooked up for 24hrs to go! :rofl:

24 hours (and 8 mins) until Showtime! Hope you guys are ready, your songs are running through last few dry runs, all setup has been tested etc etc, exciting stuff!

For newbies which are @Mann_und_Mouse @eric.lennon @philsmith @TheCluelessLuthier @Chench @jkahn and @sclay please make sure to tweak all Zoom settings before tomorrow that reduce noise surpression and to hit original sound button on before your first notes :wink: details in the link below. :grinning:

Open Mic Tech Talk - How to Setup Zoom

Setup wise - one song I am prepared for, the other will be a quick change over between both slots so whatever comes out to Zoom will be a mystery :grinning:

Song wise - well I don’t think I will ever be 100% ready so let’s say it’s good to go, crash and burn all the way! :sweat_smile:

Just about to do my Friday night Dry Run recordings, for contingency, as usual. Zoom crashed twice, video froze 3 times and I suddenly got a huge echo that’s not been there all week. The last one was me leaving an Audio channel open in OBS (recording this afternoon). Had to reboot the PC and it took an nervous 15 minutes to recover. :scream: So all events to get the old sphincter twitching and praying this time tomorrow all will be well.

See you in the Green Room peeps.

Just look at the list of performers.

WOW WOW WOW

I have lost track somewhat. I reckon at least a good handful are going to be first time performers.
Is that correct?

I hope you all have a fantastic and enjoyable debut in the OM slot.

So you are saying it’s just a usual Friday night before any OM? :grinning:

Yes Richard we have 7 (!!) debutants so this is going to be very interesting to see what they have cooked up! I am sure it will be great :grinning:

Hi Richard, I am a newbie although I have been to 2 of Justins Electric Jam Band workshops and hoping to go again in October this year. This is quite different for me, it is much different performing a full song on your own and also I am going acoustic
