This day was quite the excellent experience. It was one filled with music and mirth. I have a tremendous sense of anticipation for the potential future the band has in store. It will really find a groove when we finally get the drummer in place, too.
It is always a learning experience when I get to perform in any setting. Today I learned that my hands feel and act very different in a performance setting. They get sweaty and the strings actually feel different because of it. I also need to practice standing up so that I can get used to the way the bass looks as I play it. I found myself sort of losing the strings I needed from time to time. And there were certainly more unexpected challenges that I won't go into at the moment.
It is vitally important that I devote more time to practice now. My responsibility to the band(though more especially to the music itself) is now greater than it was before tonight. We have created a standard for ourselves. It should only go up from here.
