yeah... i thought "failure" was an extreme word to use for the gig. for one thing, di naman tayo uber nagkalat kasi matino pa naman yung lumabas at di naman tayo napahiya (in a technical sense). whatever the crowd thought (which i think was ok, since some people did approach us and say we had a great set), they were receptive in any case, and I think we weren't really playing for the crowd, but were just satisfied that they weren't heckling us and were just giving us a fair listen, and this kept us going. that's not bad at all.
i had been expecting a better gig because our practices were almost perfect and i was super confident about us doing a fantastic job... up until 2 hours before the show, when i started to want to throw up. maybe the combination of fatigue and nerves (because of the new place) got to me. basta, other than that, i thought we'd do great. but things happened and we didn't do as well as expected--- still, i thought it was a success. we did learn 3 new songs (in a really short time!) and we got to break them in last time. there's nowhere to go from here but up.
