I Flew to Bulgaria to Play Guitar with Nasty Savage (My Biggest Show Ever)

My first time ever flying to another country to play guitar, and we almost didn't make it. This is my full account of playing with Nasty Savage at the Running Free Festival in Bulgaria. I cover my live gear setup, how I packed my guitar for an international flight, what it's like playing through festival backline gear you've never touched, and what it actually felt like to play the biggest show of my life. 🎸 FREE Metal Guitar Lesson Guide: https://www.jasonstallworthguitaracad... 🎓 Jason Stallworth Guitar Academy: https://www.jasonstallworthguitaracad... 📺 Full Bulgaria documentary (40 minutes) on the Candy and Jason channel:    • We Almost Missed the Show | Flying to Bulg...   Timestamps: 00:08 - Live show opener 00:09 - Intro - flying to Bulgaria with a guitar 01:15 - Van ride to the hotel in Dryanovo 01:43 - How I packed my guitar for international travel 03:38 - Stage setup and soundcheck 03:53 - My effects setup and what backline means 07:07 - Arriving at the festival (Troops of Doom playing as we pulled in) 08:59 - Live show footage 11:03 - Meeting fans after the show 12:11 - Touring with your wife and why it worked for us 13:50 - The band tries Bulgarian beer 🍺 14:28 - Nasty Ronnie, the band, and how we bonded 16:49 - The airports, missed flights, and why we almost missed our own show 19:06 - What's coming next + full documentary link 19:46 - Outro Huge thank you to the promoter of this show and all the Running Free Festival shows.
