Thread Name: Why and/or When to Turn Down a Gig
Subject: RE: Why and/or When to Turn Down a Gig
South Shields this year, One of the Wilson's had pulled out of the gig and we "stood in", I came out of the Coronary Care ward on the wednesday, played it on the Sunday and was back in Coronary care on monday morning. a) I was not at all well during the performance and so I thought it was sub standard, b) I seriously risked my well being.
In hindsight I should have pulled out but I hate dissapointing people, I am of the school that if you say you are going to do something you do it. We are doing a charity gig next month, someone offered us a paid gig on the same evening, the charity gig came first, that is the one we shall be doing.
