Dude, don't cancel the gig. Everyone has off-days where they can't get a single workable sound out of anything. Some days you should just be playing playstation and eating pizza instead. The number of times I've said "I'm fed up with this, I'm selling everything to buy a big plasma screen and giving up" are too numerous to count, but it's just one of them bad days when the muse ain't with you.
Problem is that this bad day has lasted about a year so far. That's not a bad idea about selling up and getting a plasma though. I think that the focus of my life is changing somewhat.
Stick with it mate, you've already gone further than most of us ever dare to dream we might. Try doing something totally different and fresh. I've just been working on some hip-hop stuff after feeling just like you for ages, and it's really got me re-invigorated.
If I want to avoid looking like a tourist, I try to look like I know where I'm going, even if I don't. And I find somewhere to hide so I can look at the map occassionally without anyone noticing ;)
