By the minimal criterion of not screwing up, we actually exceeded our expectations substantially. There were a few dicey moments ahead of ti me. The host was late, we couldn’t sign up, we had a potentially serious health crisis right beforehand, I was pretty stressed out because I heard that a close friend of mine had been hit by a car on his bike (he’s basically in traction), and my friends whom I’d invited dropped like flies today.

But the show must go on. And it did. Not only did I not forget my tricky Hebrew lyrics, and LHC did not forget his chords, we sounded pretty damn good together. I even told a couple of jokes. We got good feedback, though we didn’t particularly need it; we knew we rocked. And in the end several friends turned up, and there were 7 of us for wine and pizza.

Yay! I can do this! Woohoo!
