It seemed to take longer than it should to walk across the gym in pure silence, everybody's eyes on me. When I finally came upon my guitar, I picked it up, turned my amp on and hit a string to see how loud it was. Too quiet. I adjusted my amp, and went to sit down at my chair. I paused, and then started. Since I had only hit one string, I wasn't sure if the others were in tune. I only knew that one was well tuned. As soon as I started playing, I knew that one was horribly off. I had to stop and change it. I was very embarrassed because I looked like I wasn't prepared. It was a very awkward silence for those moments while I was tuning my guitar. I thought people were going to remember this part, instead of the actual song. As soon as I was done, I started playing again. Much better. It ended up being ok, and many people commented on my song. Now I am very glad that I tuned. 
Good job. I like how detailed your description was.

I'm so glad you wrote about this moment-I wondered how you were feeling up there. I bet it did feel like an eternity to tune, but I thought "good for you" when you decided to tune it. I'm sure it was worth it.
ReplyDeleteYou sounded great! I like how you tell it in the format of a story.
ReplyDeleteYou did a good job up there! I like how you really described your thoughts and that moment in detail.
