My first paying gig... Woo!

[Nothing But Net]

Yesterday, I got to play with a band and actually got some cash in return. It was with Aubrey Dunham (a local blues talent) <a href="http://www.bluesdog.com/">Bluesdog</a> and had a blast.

Here are a couple of photos from the set, I wish they were of better quality:

Aubrey is the guy in the white shirt in the middle of the second pic.

It was a toy run benefit for a local youth home, so the band played for free, but at the end Aubrey gave me $15 from the tip jar (totally unexpected). Wow! I gave $5 of it to the charity, and spent the rest at auction for a pair of cheap sunglasses.

A very good day was had by all. There is nothing like the sight of over 100 styling bikes in one place. Now I want a Harley real bad. Tony, when I get back to Philly I'm bringing the bongos, we need to jam.
