Gettin’ By With a Little Help From My (TAC)Friends
So on Saturday (6/26/21), I attended my 3rd VOM, 1st time for the SNL VOM. The theme was “somewhere you want to go” and I played “Hotel California” because I would like to go there (to Wine Country). When I started to play, I didn’t feel nervous because I’d played the song in front of family earlier in the day and went through it without any problems. Well, somewhere in the 3rd verse, I completely forgot the lyrics and for the life of me couldn’t remember what they were. It was a real brain freeze! I stopped playing and apologized to the attendees. My chest was really pounding and my fretting hand was shaking. Everyone was very kind and telling me that I did a great job etc., when I heard someone say the next verse. I immediately started playing and singing from that point and finished the song – with a little help from my (TAC) friends.
My #small win was being reassured that everyone there wanted to help me. Thank you to the host and attendees – I couldn’t have finished without you all!👏👏👏
