It wasn't our first gig but one time we played a local pub as a favour to the landlord who has lots of (spit) karaoke nights and thought real music would make a pleasant change. The audience were so geared for karaoke that they insisted on getting up on satge and 'singing' with us. Many were furious to find out we didn't have words written up on a screen and one wretched woman asked, apparently seriously, how we could remember all those songs! Scarred us for life, that gig!
