Me personally, I play "gigs". I've always found it kinda pretentious and a little off putting when people refer to their gigs as "shows". To each his own I suppose.
It cracks me up when I hear I some musician talking about the "show" they recently played. Oh, wow...and where was your "show"? "At Joe's Pizzaria!" Yeah, OK.
For the most part it seems to me like musicians under 30 or 35 play "shows" while those older play "gigs".
