01 Introduction
First gigs are everything about music all wrapped up in one evening. Terrifying, exhilarating, frequently drunken, uplifting and depressing all at the same time. It's an addiction and your habit starts here. 

This section will help you start out in the world of live music, including: 
 
  • Finding a venue
  • Who to talk to
  • What they will want from you
  • Dealing with first gig blues
