After a lot of planning, promotion, practice and worry, the show in Ottawa last night went pretty good I think. It was the first real club gig with the new band and I was surprisingly happy with the sound.
The crowd was energetic and fun, if not as large as I had hoped from the amount of frigging time I put in promoting it. Lots of people sang along with my songs and knew the words and I guess that might be the best feeling in the world.
I still feel scared having a laptop on stage. I wish I had a better solution but I don’t. I love computers and am good with them but that also makes me aware of how easily they can fail. When girls are dancing on stage all I can think about is “I hope they don’t accidentally yank out my firewire cable.” So, not exactly a carefree experience.
But it was good. Total success basically by all goals I set for it. And I’m looking forward to Toronto next Saturday. And then more shows?

I don’t think you can afford to overlook the possibility that this whole laptop issue is really all some elaborate conspiracy of your wife’s. ;)

When you’re ready to do some state side shows, let me know. I’ll get you a gig at one of the best bars in Erie PA with my band. It would be a blast!

Sounds like it was a fun time. Wish I could’ve gone, but Texas is kinda far from Ottawa…
