Gig at the Old Hall Tavern, Chingford) 9th Sep 2023 - my 4th gig with the new band (the Alan Linfoot band), and my wife and some friends came to this one and took some pics & phone vids. (Not the best of sound quality with a phone, and my wife couldn't get the phone to work so missed the beginning). Ridiculously I must have played 'Sultans' 100 times but had a loss of concentration at the start of the 2nd solo (thankfully improvised & recovered - audience knew no difference!) . Sorry about that but it was 32 degrees, hottest night of the year, and we were well into our 2nd set (31 numbers over 2hrs) so I was a bit hot, sweaty & tired and just had a 'brain fart' lol!
I started out with nothing..... but I've still got most of it left (Seasick Steve)
Comments
Get the frontman with the strat & the fan blowing hair to carry his weight & do the bloody solos
This is definitely not one of those!
I have minor comments for drummer and singer (former would benefit from a little more swing and the latter needs to look like he's enjoying himself!) but none on the solo aside from the minor flub that you're aware of and dealt with really well!
Thanks again for listening & glad you liked the clip.
As for "when am I ready?" You'll never be ready. It works in reverse, you become ready by doing it. - pmbomb
