I like the lyrics and all but sometimes (most of the time, actually) I just want to focus on the beat/instruments and not get distracted by the lyrics. I wish there was an official instrumental released.
What we have found best, though, is getting guest instrumentalists in - even if only for a particular track these can add an excellent flavour. So for a track with a strong drum line, consider getting a friendly percussionist to overlay some fills or beats. In two weeks a good session musician can learn enough to fill out a single set.
Loop stations are very useful tools for this sort of situation. You can build up the track as you go along, using whatever inputs you so desire: bass , rhythm, sub lead, even vocal sounds. The basic rhythm track can with some loopers, already be there. But, you could even use a guitar percussively to put down a 'drum' track. All this could be accompanied by you explaining briefly what is happening, in jocular form, perhaps, to keep the listeners entertained. It all builds up to the scintillating final solo, by you, over all the bits you've already given the audience. Using a double or triple pedal looper will give you the options of bringing in or out different mixes. You could even cheat a bit and have some tracks already recorded. AND.....there's no more musos to pay !!
I'm going to be very direct here. In two weeks you simply do not have time to go from never performing to opening for a huge metal festival, much less so since you have to come up with something crazy/creative to make your one man show interesting. You should back out as gracefully as you can; I can only assume the organizers did not understand the "behind the scenes" of your music and you can explain it to them.
Following the suggestions in the other answers is a great idea, though, just make your preparations well in advance of whenever you would like to perform live (and you should probably start with a smaller gig!). There's something to be said for spontaneity, but from your question I can't see any reason to believe that you'd be able to handle the huge transition here in one go.
Study design: : We regressed the probability of 30-day readmission on postoperative LOS using (1) a (naive) logit model that controlled for observed patient and hospital covariates only; and (2) a residual inclusion instrumental variable (IV) logit model that further controlled for unobserved confounding. The IV was defined using a measure of the hospital's risk-adjusted LOS for patients admitted for gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
Conclusions: : The findings indicate that a reduction in postoperative LOS is associated with an increased risk for 30-day readmission among Medicare patients undergoing bypass surgery, after both observed and unobserved confounding effects are corrected.

Let's go in the garden.. You'll find something waiting..! Right there where you left it, lying upside down. When you finally find it, you'll see how it's faded. The underside is lighter when you turn it around.. Everything stays right where you left it.. Everything stays but it still changes. Every so slightly, daily and nightly, in little ways, when everything stays.. :')

When we combine the view that one ought to be instrumentally coherent as such with the wide-scope formulation of the rational requirement, it doesn't follow, in our example, that one ought to kill one's rival. Rather, it only follows that one ought to either revise the intention to stay in power, or revise the belief that one will do so only if one intends to kill one's rival, or intend to kill one's rival.
A similar problem would arise if we say that there is a reason to be instrumentally coherent. Suppose we say that there is a reason to either revise the intention to stay in power or revise the belief that one will do so only if one intends to kill one's rival, or intend to kill one's rival. Now suppose that both the end and belief are unalterable, and we apply a similar transmission principle:
We then get the implausible result that there is a reason to intend to kill one's rival. (If we accept Strong Reasons Necessity, then this transmitted reason to intend to kill one's rival would be at least as strong as the reason to be instrumentally rational.)
One could respond to these arguments by challenging the relevanttransmission principles (see the discussionin 2 of the main text, and see Way2010). Another strategy of response would be to argue that when one'sends and beliefs are unalterable, the reason to be instrumentallycoherent is no longer in place. If that reason is no longer in place,then there is no reason to be transmitted, and hence no implausibleresult would follow from the application of a transmission principle.Bratman (2009c) presents an argument along these lines. In Bratman'sview, we have a reason to be instrumentally coherent only because wehave a reason to be self-governing. But when one is no longer capableof revising one's ends, one is no longer capable of self-governance inthat domain. Hence, the reason to be instrumentally coherentdisappears.
Bratman acknowledges that there are two potential difficultiesfacing such a strategy. First, even if it's true that the reason tobe instrumentally coherent disappears in such cases, the rationalrequirement to be instrumentally coherent does not. So, this strategyinvolves conceding that there are some cases in which one does nothave a reason to be instrumentally coherent. Second, it's not clearthat an inability to revise one's ends always makes one incapable ofself-governance. For instance, suppose that one is unawarethat one is unable to revise one's ends, but, after careful reflectionand deliberation, one decides to intend the means. That seems toinvolve self-governance. So, self-governance is possible here. Butthat means, on Bratman's view, there would be a reason to beinstrumentally coherent that would transmit, yielding the implausibleresult (Brunero 2010).
So, if we say that one ought, or has a reason, to bring it about that either one doesn't intend to stay in power, or one doesn't believe intending to kill one's rival is necessary to stay in power, or one intends to kill one's rival, then it follows that one has a reason for each disjunct. In particular, it follows that one has a reason to intend to kill one's rival. And this seems implausible (see Bedke 2009, 2.a). So, the combination of Raz's transmission principle with the thesis that one ought, or has reason, to be instrumentally coherent yields an implausible result.
A problem with this response, however, is that it would work equally well in defense of the claim that one has a reason to be instrumentally rational. Recall that the supposed problem here was that if there is a reason to be instrumentally rational, and Raz's transmission principle is correct, then it follows that the person who intends to stay in power, believes intending to kill his rival is necessary to do so, but doesn't intend to kill his rival, would have a reason to intend to kill his rival. But one could equally well accept this conclusion, emphasize that the reason here is greatly outweighed, and appeal to the pragmatics of reasons discourse to explain why it sounds odd to say there is such a reason (Schroeder 2005a).
With so many instrument changes, all the band were provided with stereo IEM mixes from the monitor DiGiCo SD7, except for pianist Dominic Ferris, who preferred to hear his piano acoustically so sported one mono, hard-wired earpiece plus a Genelec speaker to augment his sound. A pair of mono wedge-monitor feeds were specially mixed, one to give guitarist Jay Stapley a bit of sustain and one for bass player Lisa Featherston, who sang Moonlight Shadow and needed her vocal through speakers.
One of the things I love about the SD7 is you can tailor the workflow to make it very fast to use, which was especially useful for speedy communications with the individual members of the band which was essential for efficient rehearsals.
