The gig tonight was in Dartford. This is in Kent. I was to take the PA system and meet up with the rest of the acts. This should not be a big thing to do. A gig is a gig.
In the end, the night was a bit of a rollercoaster. Some of it worked, some of it didn't. I surprised myself with aiming my "old lady" song at an actual older woman. I was also surprised, since it's quiet and slow, and the pub seemed to surge with noise when I was being most quiet. In the end, though, it captured a moment, and I found it funnier than ever to sing, knowing ahead of each line what I was about to say and being socked myself at saying it with a specific recipient sitting in the room...
...it's nice to have something in a gig which makes you, the performer, laugh, especially if the gig was a bit more heavy going than average.
