The last REAL gig I played...
🕑 Added 2021-03-09 14:40:05 +0000 UTCHey everyone! Hope y’all are doing well!
I just realized I passed the one year mark of my last real show, playing with my great friends in The Hit Points at VGM Con in Minneapolis.... wow. About a week after I flew home from this one, everything changed.
I’ve mentioned the Hit Points a couple times on my channel and collaborated with them on a couple things in the past, but if you don’t know them, please check out their album on Spotify! Incredible modern bluegrass renditions of classic video game music. Amazing musicians!
I made a video last year about how I prepped for this gig. The music is CRAZY complicated, and I think I had like a week or two to learn the entire set (an hour’s worth of material). I think the video is called “how I get ready for big gigs” or something like that. All my prep mostly paid off, but of course I still have a good share of clams in there!!! But still, I had no idea this would be the last show I would get to play footloose and fancy-free. Hopefully by the fall I will be able to get my feet back on a stage somewhere! Play every show like it could be your last!!
What was YOUR last gig?

The last show I saw was Prong with Agnostic Front in Brattleboro, VT. I love Tommy Victor. Not just for how he plays, but he’s always been really cool to me in person.
Final Fantasy!
