Does this count as a concert?

I organized a performance and played in front of 100 people in an auditorium/gym-like area. There were 2 other musicians playing too. Is this called a concert? If not, what would it be called?
If I accidentally offend anyone or violate some kind of etiquette I apologize it's my first time here.

Of course it is a concert.

What kind of music did you play, covers or originals?

lancastel · 07-25-2013, 08:02 PM

I played covers but one of the other musicians played originals

Welcome to MB lancastel. What artist and bands do you cover?

I usually think of that sort of setting as a gig rather than a full on concert.

Yeah... I think that Concert, show, and gig is actually all the same thing by definition.

Concert just sounds better.

Why? because your show turned out to be just another ordinary gig.
