OK, I was wrong. Has that ever happened to you?

A few posts ago, I b*tched and moaned about a new band I'm in. Basically, I complained that there too many chiefs and not enough warriors. But yesterday we played an afternoon gig at a local BBQ place and absolutely nailed it. Maybe being a chief just means confidence. The audience was really into it, and we wound up doing three encores. We made over $125 in tips, and over $400 from the house. The temps were in the 90s, so I only drank two beers, plus a lot of water and Gatorade. We'll see what the future holds. Have you ever been wrong about something?

Probably. I don't know everything, it's just that people think I do.

@BarBaraPrz When I don't know Pravda, I just shut up. Do you have friends who blab on, even when they don't know what they are talking about?

What is right today can be wrong tomorrow or in different context. Forgiving self is good policy.

My father is wrong oh so often...today we were watching cricket, Rishabh Pant was dropped by Southee, dad was arguing for a long time that Southee is fielding at boundary not at slips. Finally he conceded. The sorry was barely audible. LOL

Do you also "change the rules" a lot without letting your male victims know?

You are happy to be proved wrong in this case. At times,we jump to conclusion, but this looks a promising start.
