kendall band gig post

Just a quick note.

After a lot of guitar practice, and practice with a band, I’m happy to say that we totally rocked Richmond, Virginia in my first public performance!

We alternated eight-song sets with another band and kept Sharky’s Bar hopping.

In the pic we are on our final number (#16) and you can see we filled the dance floor.

I played electric guitar on all of our Americana-themed songs, and I also sang and played for two songs: Runnin’ Down a Dream by Tom Petty and the HeartBreakers, and The Wolf by Mumford and Sons.

Here’s the full Americana setlist we performed:

Set 1

  1. Southern Man
  2. Big Yellow Taxi
  3. When Will I Be Loved
  4. R.O.C.K in the USA
  5. My Silver Lining
  6. Have You Ever Seen the Rain
  7. Stop Draggin My Heart
  8. Wrong Year

Set 2

  1. The Wolf
  2. Ho Hey
  3. On the Road Again
  4. Me and Bobby McGee
    • You’re No Good
    • Old Man
    • Running Down a Dream
    • Chicken Fried
Now we’re practicing a new themed setlist — this time Blues-based.
By the way, the guitar I’m holding in the pic is my new [Epiphone Les Paul Studio Goth](http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002GFTH6/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_.x51vb1B0VN9P&tag=kytc-20&linkId=ZX4ZTQGCAM5FKPTO).

Woot!
