I think my first stage experience was as the Big Bad Wolf in a school setting of Little Red Riding Hood, when I was about 7 or 8. As I played the rear part of the wolf this doesn't really count...
Musically, I think it was with my first rock group, Bloqueio Mental, and the sound engineer wannabe instead of balancing all the instruments left and right put half of them to sound on stage and the other half for the audience to hear. We were deafened by the guitar and everyone liked the (somewhat lengthy) keyboard solo.
On the cello, my first performance was a new, modern and daring approach to a couple of Dotzauer duos, with more repeats than the guy had planned (among other additions...)
