Ooooh, I played piano for the first time ever at a gig last night and it was wonderful. I really enjoyed it. The piano was at a right angle to the audience, and I found it so strange to turn my head towards the audience and look at them while I was playing.
The sound was so good and professional in New York, felt different to London gigs in a good way. I think I would really like to play some Open Mics here, but doubt I have time. I have two more gigs this week at Tillie's Cafe here in Fort Greene on Friday, and at Banjo Jim's on Thursday.
I'm having such a cool time, and Debs is a great host.

Sidewalk Cafe
Tonight I'm playing the Sidewalk Cafe on the Lower East Side. I'm hoping to play the piano as well as the uke for the first time ever at this kind of gig. So this is a big evening for firsts for me. First ever gig in America, first ever gig in New York.
