I'm breaking out in hives and around 7 my pulse was at 110 bpm. great night. I think I played alright....
I thought I was gonna pass out or die or something. Dmilz was very concerned. When he asked me if I needed to go get a drink and calm down was when I really broke down. I stuck it out though. I did what I needed to do, I guess that's the beset I can do. No more music for a while now. I have string long tomorrow so that means food and a movie. gzfjergsvnm calm. breathe.
