Im gonna be honest here, I didn't enjoy either acoustic gig 
A little bit more practise on the arrangements would have been nice as someone said earlier but I think think our tunes are made to be played just loud with Marshall amps turned up to 11 
It was all for a good cause though at the end of the day which is the main thing for me.
To end on a good note though - we have 1 new completed song which was played at the acoustic gig and is officially on the setlist now. We also now have another 5 new songs in the making, in the words of AC/DC, "LET THERE BE ROCK"  | |

A problem with playing drop D'd acoustics is that for a lot of the time you're only playing half the guitar which effectively makes your instrument only half as loud. I'd be so bold as to suggest that for your next acoustic show you might want to re-arrange the tracks a little to make them simpler and bigger, and invest in a capo.
Think you're being a little too down on yourself though, you were fucking good, and also a blinding wake-up for one poor hungover soul. | |

The plan is to spend the next couple of months on the lead up to xmas trying to get these new songs finished and perfected.
Maybe try and add in a gig here and there. | |

Rach! You need to find something to do when you're not singing that's not standing looking a bit nervous and waiting for your next bit. Hump the mic stand or something.

A boy I met the other day, gave him my myspazz and he wants to do some stuff with me.
I suppose you'll do on occasion if you manage to learn stuff.
