Plus I didn't drop a drumstick (my biggest on stage fear)!

btw we didn't have time to grab guitar strings so our guitarist did end up breaking two strings but one of the other bands were nice enough to let us use their guitars

Nice of them to let you use them! I once saw a band have an inventive way of continuing the song whilst the guitarist changed strings - half way through Purple Haze he snapped his lower string so while he mended it the drummer did a John Bonham-esque interlude! (think of the one in Whole Lotta Love.)
