I think the best thing is to NEVER say "I." "We are very fortunate..." "We will be hearing some of the finest ..." What I have to remember, don't say "so, without further ado..." Of course, "the bathrooms/toilets/loos are located ...." For small shows, "tonight's fabulous volunteers are ...." "On sound, hard-working ..........." And for touring musicians, give some of their next gigs, so folks can tell their friends. I saw the wonderful Gordon Bok last night and the great MC did almost every one of these things!! Congrats to the Portand FMS! Chris in rainy Portland
