A simple word of encouragement means so much to anyone getting up the nerve to perform in front of other people. It costs nothing and is so much appreciated.

Add a bit of helpful advice if you want.

It still means a lot to me even now when someone, especially someone I admire, tells me they enjoy my singing or my harmony or the way I handled a difficult situation.

Even comparatively experienced singers can have some self doubt.

Thanks, Maeve, for your kind sweet words about Curmudgeon. He influenced and encouraged so many people, and perhaps me more than anyone. I miss him and his advice and encouragement.
