Band: Aidy (with full band)
Venue: Internet live broadcast gig - in Aidy's house
Date: 30/10/10
Audience: According to the online statistics, we peaked at 10 people, but the average was 8 loyal supporters watching online
Set: Not sure, 10 tracks - 9 original and then a request (from one of the 8 audience members) for a cover of Novocaine For The Soul (by Eels) which we bashed through
Notes: Our big Halloween gig was cancelled a couple days ago, and with a lack of alternative venue to play we decided to play a show in Aidy's house - and broadcast it live to the entire world. Which in theory, could be the biggest audience ever, as the world is massive. Statistics show that we played to 10 people, and I was happy enough with this - those 10 people are sat at home on a Saturday night and have decided to give up half an hour of their time to login and watch us play some tunes. And 10 people is more of an audience than the Windsor gig last month, and we didn't have to travel or anything for this one (okay, Aidy didn't have to travel, the rest of us had to make the short distance to the street across the road from the Portland Arms). Performance-wise it was the first time I've played drums for Aidy, having previously played congas for him. I hadn't rehearsed, but I'm familiar with the songs anyway and I thoroughly enjoyed myself, especially as it came after a stressful studio session so it was great to let loose. 'Prettyish' is a really good song by the way, I realised that tonight, not sure what our Internet 'fans' thought, but the four of us in the room had a great time at least and I think that showed.
