Note: Aftermath of my planning here

First off - Seddit, you're awesome. Thanks for helping me realize how awesome I am too :).

Anyways, so I go to this bar out in London (where I'm currently situated). Wednesday nights are their student nights - 3 pound cover, 1 pound vodka+mixer drinks (even vodka+Red Bull). I walk in and start saying hi to the people I've started picking up on being regulars, introduce myself into a couple of sets briefly, mostly just opening, saying hi, moving on. It's not terribly packed when I first arrive, so my first song (Get Back) comes up. I sing it, and I nail it. The audience is cheering, as I go to the bar guys and girls are complimenting me, I give out high fives, say thank you, flirt a bit with the girls who do so, get to the bar.

See a HB 7 or so, she's from Germany but here studying. Nothing came from talking to her, but I later on used her as social proof.

Eventually I see this HB 7.5 (C) that was there last week - tall, red hair, thin. Mmmm. Last week she told me she had a BF, same guy is there this week, don't push the issue, but keep talking to her. She remembers me, is excited to see me, but forgot my name. Easy neg opportunity, very playful, some light kino. By the end of the night I get her number, find out she and her 'bf' are on again off again, they're off that night. Second song gets called - I Can't Get No Satisfaction. Crowd loves it. After, have a smoke with her, realize she bic'd me after a while once I'm back inside. when I realized my lighter was gone I headed back outside, she was still there. She teases me about not getting it back, and I go full alpha and just ninja-snatch it back from her hand - huge grin as I do this. Pretty sure this was the best shit test she could throw out, and I just didn't have any of it. Woo! Set up a potential day 2, she's expressed interest in seeing this concert I'm putting on next Tuesday, thinks she'll be able to make it. I'll text her date/time over the weekend, leave it up to her to show up. Secon

Other group of note was a 6 set containing anywhere from HB6's to an HB9 - the AFOG/Mother Hen simultaneously. I run into them by being the life of the party, eventually get involved in their pictures, lots of hand holding with the HB6 (K) [a bit thick, but sometimes I like them that way], even a bit of grinding when a group went to sing Ignition (Remix). Lots of solid kino, held good eye contact, and just held my frame of "Havin' a good time." Called for my third and (final) song of the night - You Can't Always Get What You Want - crowd singalong, pumped them up super hard, went for it. DHV'd like a champ. Guy who claimed to be a professional pianist/guitarist came up and complimented me for all my performances that night, said I should quit my major and do music instead. Made my inner game ROCK SOLID for the rest of the night :D. There was an HB 7 (B) of german descent, also of the group, she forgot my name, teased her about that (particularly during "Oh Na Na Na (What's My Name?)". Worked fantastic, she loved it. HB 7.5 (K2) and I realized we smoke both herb, I offered to smoke with her the very last of my stash [scraped the drawer to fill half a j.] We go around the corner, her friends go to the corner to 'watch', I make no moves, but just talk about music (Turned out the set was in London to study Beatles music/lyrics - something I'm a bit of a self-taught expert on], talk about other music, DHV by jumping into singing random songs mentioned (In My Time Of Dying, I Want You[She's So Heavy], Space Oddity). Her friends walk over as we light cigs, I just keep talking, bring them into the convo. Eventually run Strawberry Fields on her (3 foot fence, 13 strawberries, no guilt towards the farmer at all). End of the night, I'm waiting for my bus, they're waiting for a taxi, HB 7.5 has a guy all over her, but she's not giving in. HB 6 asks me to rescue her, wasn't sure what to do, because 7.5 would've bounced if she didn't like the attention. Go across the street with the group, get 6 and 6.5's numbers, make tentative plans to go out Friday night. Find out 7.5 is married/in a serious LTR.

GOALS: Txt 7.5C with details of my performance over the weekend. If she shows up, my perceived value will skyrocket, will attempt to game her at the afterparty/after the afterparty.

Txt the 6/7, make plans for Friday night. Try the 'let's get together, make dinner, pregame, then head out to places!' gambit - with 6 of them it'll make complete sense for me to go there to cook, and I'll peruse Time Out! for cheap/free things to do Friday as to seem like the life of the party. Use HB 7.5 K2 as my wingwoman, to an extent - she won't be in on it, clearly, but I'll divert attention to her, as we get along solidly, make others jealous that way.

Thank you Seddit - I'm living the dream :D. You'll see another FR from me soon enough - and I'd say wish me luck, but I don't need it - I'm a boss! :D
