Daniel,
Very very proud of you getting as Tom G says "out there"!
Excellent song choices, and I am sure they were well received. I know your arrangements were fresh and spot on. plus that was the right number for an open mike 3. Here's my 3
In-a-ga-da-vida (22 minutes)
Green Grass and High Tides ( 9 minutes) and
Freebird -Live version with all the solos (10:08)
by the time I am done, they are putting the stools upside down on the tables!
Congrats and keep going- these are great confidence builders, you have the "halo"effect ( no one else will have a Stick) and you see what works and what doesn't to build your repetoire.
Kudos,
Dave B "DBro"
PS on the mike placement, hopefully they have a boom and you can put it right in front of you, if not, I like it more stage left and you talk over your shoulder, and then walk to the center of the stage without it blocking the audience's view. hope this helps. to the soundman " could you run my wireless Shure headset mike in Channel Z- thx" good luck with that being on!
