My First GIG

Throw back to when I played my first major gig.
I was just 11, as at 2008.
I had just started high school.
before then, we had series of rehearsals and songs to work on.
The gig was a yearly thing and normally my director brings extra hands to help make the gig better.
This particular year I was shocked because I was the only one who played the whole gig.
At some point, one of the guys which normally feature in the gig just walked into the church auditorium.
As a young boy I felt sacred that he was gonna come get the sticks and play the rest if the service, to.my surprise he didn't.He just sat there and watched me play the whole thing.
after service, he called me out and dashed me a huge am out of money and the told me "what is inside you is bigger than what is in the world, you got a lot of work to do boy" The next day he took me on series of rehearsals.
my life hasn't been the same since then.
