Haha sweet..
I once dropped a stick during my first gig... very embarassing, very disappointing and discouraging.. i couldn't even hide it well as the stick fell into one of those inbetween places near the bass drum... so, don't forget to bring extra sticks and put them in a very accessible place!

but then i guess dropping a stick isn't as bad as not bringing sticks at all... haha good one mookie
