So we arrived late, as usual huh?
Well, 2 of us did and for once it was beyond our control
and anything but fashionable, where the first thing I heard was:
"We're on first coz you're late!"
What?! So we arrive 30 minutes early instead of 60... right!
"Dude you go and sell tickets, I'll tell 'em you got held up."
We might as well make some cash if we're the first ones on...

We waited 25 minutes before we could start our sound check.
Yeh, I don't know why we have to be there an hour early either.

We started to play and the pit grew slightly.
"Not bad for a first band on!", I thought.
The set played well and we reached the final climax.
The mic stand hit the floor, that made me feel better,
the mic followed it. Mills' bass flew past my head, buttons flying off and
chipping as it hit the stage. All I could hear was Danny beating
the kit within an inch of it's life and feedback
as Faulder pushed his guitar against his amp on full blast.
I kicked the mic closer to the monitor to add more feedback.

Then we walked off.

The soundman finally managed to turn everything off
and we returned to the stage to tidy our stuff away.
Then we got a great crowd reaction and I smiled.
"Let's go get pissed..."
