Thread Name: A'capella or not?
Subject: RE: a capella or not?
hi margo,

i sing at a local open mic night 'bodles opera house': http://www.bodles.com/

it's a really great open mic place, btw, the folks are fun and nice, the sound system is well run and at least half the audience is there to listen. it used to be a 3 song per place but just went to 2.

anyway, i don't play guitar, but there's usually a kind soul who'll play one or two for me, but to give them a break, i always sing at least one number a capella. the crowd always seem to enjoy it, it's sort of my trademark now. seems to 'wow' those who never would dare, but for me, it's biz as usual since i never accompany myself at home.

go for it, darlin.
