) that I am a musician. Mostly for fun, but occasionally I do some paid work on the side, either gigs or session work. End of February I played a gig for an event.
It was a lot of fun – 26 cover songs with a great band, and a theme of “Back to School: High School hits through the years”. We smashed out everything from Cyndi Lauper to Kenny Loggins; Backstreet Boys to Black Eyed Peas. When doing a gig like that you always try and create a great energy throughout, engage the crowd, and choose songs that will build an atmosphere and the ebbs and flows that entails.
