>get invited to a rbma social mixer in my city
>try to mentally prepare myself really hard for the meeting of people
>get there and to my luck there is a guy I know from the internet
>only chat with him most of the night
>some people volunteering to go on stage/couch and introduce themselves and play a track thru the loudspeakers
>everyone's songs are jazzy, soulful, hip hop beats.
>interviewer/host who I met upon arrival told me to come up
>as soon as I heard my voice in the microphone all I could see was stage lights
>my weird techno WIP with this awkwardly long intro starts playing
>host begins to fade the track out before the intro is even finished
>"wait wait, the... uh.. part was about to come in"
>lets the song finish
>I leave early after becoming too uncomfortable with the mingling
this was tonight
