Great looking guitar. It should sound awesome with the Riff Raffs. I've heard of your band somewhere? Did you ever play in Holland?

Well he said that their first gig is in two weeks time.. so I'm guessing not :lol:

Correct. There are loads of AC/DC tribute bands, so there must be several other "Overdose"'s! Our first gig is a week today...

Speaking of first gigs.. I had my first ever gig in this cover band I'm in today, we played well but the audience were so boring, they only "danced" to a few songs and for the majority of the time sat around talking and drinking.. I guess thats what youre meant to do at parties but still :lol: Was an easy £30, plus I got beer bought for me :D

Typical audience then Tom :) . It amazes me at gigs how often the punters sit there and do nothing.We played a gig one week where the punters went bananas from the moment we started playing. The next week -different venue, they got enthusiatic 2nd set but the first was like a paid rehearsal for us.

haha well theres this pub where the rest of the band have played a few times and said the audience there are normally great.. however thats probably because its a pub, so they are allready pissed when we get on :lol:

Good luck with the first gig man! Just out of intrest, how does the swiggle stick on that feel? I've seen those vibrola things on SGs before but never really spent time with one.

It's not bad actually - not as completely useless as I thought it would be! However as Angus I don't use it!
