We tried out a pub in town last night that has performances of the slightly heavier type and we thought we'll probably feel a little out of place.
However, Colin, who you see further down at the keyboard hosts a lot of events in the pub, one of them being the Sunday late afternoon allocated to acoustic solo and duo artists.. so we sure had to give it a shot!
We met some familiar faces from the Hyde Park pub, both open mics (or jam here) alternate fortnightly and the guy behind the bar said we'd make a welcome change to the usual stuff, he'd seen us at the other place. Sure enough many people where singing along, which is always lovely!
It filled up more later on.
We started the thing off which was nice as we were quiet compared to what happened later on.. lol
They're still tuning up here; the lights were turned down once the performances started, but I forgot to take more pics.
Just before we left I decided to sneak one of our business cards, hot off the press, on Colin's keyboard while he was playing with the band.
He said something like "... get back to you with a date.." Oooh, might we have another gig coming? 🤞 He did say he liked what he heard.. it might just be pub talk of course.. 🤔
That's it for today; Thanks for looking!

Ah, so that's why we didn't see you at the White Horse! I don't blame you for trying to get more gigs.
!HUG
Well, I think we won't go to that one on a regular basis, it's a slightly unusual open mic (I keep typing mice.. lol) so we'll most likely join you on those nights.
It's just a touch more exciting than jamming.. 🤣

Fantastic! And good for you for getting out of your comfort zone and giving it a try even though you weren't sure what to expect. We'll done 😊
Thank you, Claire! I've been playing for some time though, so only out of my comfort zone when I don't know a song very well.. haha
Gigs are fine, they're just longer Open Mics.. 😃
Teehee! I could certainly pick up some tricks from you then!
😂
