Weekly Off-Topic & Happy New Year Happy New Year, everyone! I know I have normie shit that will be coming together in 2020 and that's exciting in a way that makes me feel kind of old. I hope you all have exciting plans and better times ahead.  I was asked to perform recently. I was told the event started at 12 and to get there are 2 so I could do a set and leave. I got there at 1:30 and there were about six people there doing setup. I thought I picked the wrong day. People didn't start arriving for another hour so I was stuck being bored for an eternity. What kind of people can't get times accurate to within 3 hours? On the bright side, I have never performed before and it went way better than I expected. I was worried I would get nervous and play with shaky bow and too fast. I did okay all things considered. It could have gone really badly. Musicians can get very angry due to their violin tendencies.
