Performed for about 10-12 people Thursday night, not including the 5-6 artists also in attendance to perform. At least the other acts were interesting and talented (many thanks to Virtue, DJ Emoh Betta and my local comrade Stillborn Identity).
I take it my performance was solid as I felt really good about everything except for the numerous troubles I had playing my songs through a Mac notebook (one has to double-click the mouse scroll but it didn't work for me 9 times out of 10) and the incident with what I can only describe as a grounding device (kicked a hanging chord, pulled the thing off the table and it proceeded to flip over, rendering my once loud set to a pathetic whisper). Three years ago at Garfield Artworks I believe I lifted the same kind of device from a table in order to place my Solid Ground Entertainment vinyl banner underneath it and out of the speakers shot a loud and unfriendly shriek.
I also spilled 12 ozs of PBR onto the stage carpet. I was enjoying my set when I rhythmically turned around into the shadows and kicked my pint glass. It spilled frantically, but fortunately in a dark and narrow path. I continued with my set like nothing happened (don't tell anyone).
I'll put some video footage (digital camera, expect lo-fi) up of the show in the next day or so.
