  • Small but BIG Win!

    Posted by Lance-Hankins on July 19, 2021 at 10:06 pm

    Friend of mine was playing at an area Restaraunt and Lounge last Friday evening. About halfway through the evening he asked me if I would do a few songs so he could take a break. You could have knocked me over with a feather! So I did it. Did 3 tunes. Crowd seemed to enjoy it. Lots of applause! One guy even came by and gave me a few bucks tip for filling in! I loved it. Made my day! Thank the Lord that I’ve been doing VOMs with TAC members or I’d have been scared to death! Woo-Hoo!

      That’s where playing at the VOMs helps. You get over the heebie-jeebies in the company of the VERY supportive TAC members. It works!

    @Lance-Hankins , that’s so cool Lance! I know from seeing you on VOMs that the crowd there was treated to some really fine music. Did you do Classical Gas? 😃

      Thanks, Guy. No Classical Gas. The whole thing was unexpected and I had to use one of his guitars. Set up was WAY different than mine. And the restaurant wasn’t set up so that fingerpicking was really an option. Had to use a pick for everything… But it sure was FUN!

    @Lance-Hankins , to paraphrase some of our southern hemisphere friends, “Good on ya’, Mate.” Wow what a win, you obviously have a buddy who understands talent. Again, Wow!!!!
