A song from the last gig you went to.
So I had a hard time initially thinking of the last gig I went to, probably some jazz performance of my sister's. But I'd actually consider this experience a gig! One of my first weeks of college, I was walking back to my dorm and I saw a sign on one of our 'neighbors' door (we're all in suites on the basement floor, so we're pretty far apart) advertising a jazz concert in their dorm that night. Of course I ended up going, and it was actually pretty fucking cool. It was a bunch of guys with their instruments, crammed into the living room, who didn't really know each other, just playing as a jazz combo. They played many jazz standards, but specifically one of my favorites that Stella's combo back home likes to play. I would pick that song if I knew the name....so I'm gonna pick the one that was new to me but I really remember (because I know the name but also because it was really REALLY outstanding)! Shoutout to the guy on the saxophone and the guy on the guitar for their really awesome riffs and solos in their rendition of this song! I love live jazz so much, nothing beats it.
