The open mike

Did a nice, albiet loose, little set tonight. It mostly showed that I really really need to play more acoustic guitar.

Crank Generation (by request)
WYSIWYG (ditto)
Ghosts
Woman I Want
Trophy Wife

Normally I do the last two in the opposite order, but I had no idea what I was going to do after Woman I Want, so Trophy Wife just kinda happened.

I jabbered a lot during the first two songs, but it mostly worked. It was a nice night.

I will be doing a 45 minute set there Tuesday night ... that will be fun.

That's a generous open mike. Most I've attended have a three song limit. Some have been 15 minutes, which works out to about three songs as well.

Boheme was always 20 minutes and I could generally get 5 in. This is something really new, so only 4 or 5 folks showed up to play, so they let us go a little. They told me 6 songs, but since I tend to ramble a bit, I only did 5
