try and start the show by headbutting someone who is smaller and younger than you in the face.

once you set the tone the rest comes easy.

reminds me of metalocalypse, when murderface headbutts a danish prince..

that was awesome...

Pick a fight with everyone in the crowd.

I was just at a Murder Death Kill show tonight. (hardcore band)
The one of the vocalists, in a joking fashion, punched people in the head during one of their songs.
The crowd was enamored thereafter.

I approve this advice.

alright, I know I promised some pics and uploads of my songs, and now that I finished my last AP today, I can get that all sorted out tonight. I ended up only playing 2 songs, one of which was my first complete LSDJ tune, and the other being a far superior utilization of my skills. I was going to play a third, but I felt it wasn't ready. There was only a few pictures taken, but they look really sweet, so I will make sure I find those for you all.\



Probably wont happen tonight... got home and found out that my HDD crashed or something. My computer wont recognize it and is just displaying: PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
PXE-061: Media test failure, check cable
PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel PXE ROM

-.-.... fml

I'm reading this thread for tips because I've never played live and I have a show coming up...

Take a shot. Mental pep talk. Drink a liter of coffee. If you're hyped and have high energy on stage, the audience will vibe off it. When I played my first live in February, I had a few drinks with Bleeds, and despite having one of my song files corrupted, I went along with it and drunkenly improvised something and it turned out much better than expected!
