I hosted a show last night and during first stage appearance I asked the audience to scooch in a bit so I could take a pic of them...I figured since we were spending the evening together I wanted a keepsake

So are you Tori James vibes?...Bet that was a fun evening.

 

[vibes]

yes maam.

It was a little bit fun...but a whole lotta exhausting.

 

[packerbacker]

I've only entertained a crowd that big once! I'm impressed vibes.

I love going to the area Preforming Arts Centers for anything I can afford tickets too! And there is always some classy guy or gal to introduce the whole She-bang! WTG vibes. Is it different standing in front of a crowd as compared to being on the radio? There is nothing like a live preformance! It's so "human"

Good pics and good turnout, Vibes. Sometimes those lights are so bright you can't really tell if there's anybody out there, so it might not be much different than radio. And like packerbacker, I entertained a crowd like that once (or twice) before. They just sort of showed up when the incident began to take place.

I was just sharing a piece/slice of my life...I thought that was the purpose of this forum?

I really couldn't see past the 2nd row so am happy the crowd pic turned out as well as it did. And I'm beyond proud of my city for the big turn out.

See, it ALL starts with the creative class in any urban, suburban, rural area....you attract the creatives...well, it just makes any area more inviting, enticing and all around fun and fundamentally prosperous.

Agreed, and you're one of the few folks to get that.

So did they scooch in? Unscooch later? I know how those Blues events can get funky.
Ballsy, speaking in front of a crowd terrifies the crap outta me.
