First evar 'gig' check

I think about a dozen people showed up...including a couple of little kids, everyone else was out watching fireworks or something.

$50.00 bucks for two hours of noodling on my telecaster, and I also made $6.00 in tips, so the tip-to-customers ratio was quite high.

No one threw up or fell asleep, and I was invited to return by the owner, so I must consider it a successful evening.....even if they did spell my name wrong on the check.

(In case anyone is wondering about the wisdom of posting an image of the check on the internet, the account numbers are bogus)
