Hi All,

Thought I`d post this. We had our office Christmas party today , so I brought my guitar in and played some songs for everyone. Even though it was just an office party ( and a small one at that) it was the first time that I played for anyone other than my family. Even though I knew everyone there, I still tried to treat it like a real gig : selected some songs and practiced/rehearsed them for a few weeks, made sure the guitar was in tune etc.....

I was a little jittery at first, but once I started playing, muscle memory kicked in and it was fun. Other than a few minor flubs, things went pretty smoothly and everyone had a good time. My next step will be to play for our church once things open up again. Then, maybe, just maybe , an open mic night. Baby steps.

Merry Christmas everyone !
