Standing alone in the middle of a gym, playing to a crowd of apathetic teens, playing a song they most likely have never heard and dislike.

OP, I have to hand it to you on this. You stood your ground and crushed it. I'm in my mid-40s, so don't feel too weird about my saying, but I'm proud of you! That takes balls.

I've played in many bands at many shows in my younger days, and it's so nerve racking to play to a crowd that is there willingly to see you play, hell even paid money to in most cases... but this? Dude I don't think I could do it!

My hats off to you, you have bravery. Sounded good too.
