I joined a church band and played in a three piece acoustic once a week in front of maybe a dozen people at a weekly meeting. Then came the big event. The other guys in the band added some of their friends and there were rehearsals and I felt pretty good about the sets.

Then came time to face the 600 who were at the event. What a rush. I could here them singing along. The feedback was incredible. I have been hooked ever since.

We have another concert coming up in September. By the way, it's not acoustic any more. I have 5 Guitars, 2 amps, pedals, and all the gear. I can't figure which is worse, being a performance junkie or a gear whore!
