Title: Re: If you're in London on Wednesday, i'm doing a gig! Post by: richardsnow on October 31, 2006, 05:41:09 PM I'm going down to watch a guy called Tim Reid.
He's an Australian singer songwriter with a touch of Neil Finn about him. Hope your gig goes well Matt, you playing solo or with band? Title: Re: If you're in London on Wednesday, i'm doing a gig! Post by: matt-zeus on November 01, 2006, 01:17:45 AM Yes I know Tim Reid, well i've seen him on the myspace he's very good, have a good time!
Myself, well I don't have a band (i've given up on them!) so i'm just playing with myself, a guitar and backing tracks so basically I'm sort of karaoke-ing my own songs! Its a bit daunting cos there's three other bands on who are sort of indie-rock and I think the venue is geared toward that type of crowd, and obviously my stuff isn't really like that, i'm sure you understand what I mean. Then again, I suppose McGee wouldn't have asked me to play if he thought it wouldn't have fit in, unless he's playing some sort of crazy game! :-D Title: Re: If you're in London on Wednesday, i'm doing a gig!

Title: Re: If you're in London on Wednesday, i'm doing a gig! Post by: matt-zeus on November 04, 2006, 07:04:57 AM Hi Richard, Yeah really well I think, I had some loud cheers and good feedback, but then the audience was full of quite a few of my friends so thats probably why. It was my first ever solo gig so I was very nervous but hopefully it'll give me some confidence to do more, I will put up some clips on the myspace soon.
How was your Tim Reid gig? Title: Re: If you're in London on Wednesday, i'm doing a gig! Post by: richardsnow on November 05, 2006, 02:44:42 AM Solo gigs are nervy. Glad it went well. Get yourself a band and do some more.
Tim was excellent, and very happy that we'd travelled all the way down to see him. Title: Re: If you're in London on Wednesday, i'm doing a gig! Post by: matt-zeus on November 05, 2006, 03:29:27 AM Cheers Richard, I'm still trying to find that elusive band where everyone is on the same wavelength and can play what I want them to play! I'll keep searching.
