This is a picture as we started our first song (we were the closing act). Me and Kevin (the balding guy playing the Godin a/e) are looking at Lin (on electric) because he started our 3rd song first and we are both thinking "WTF?"

Videos of a couple of the other performers:

http://youtu.be/NgUL7bAAMHA This guys is a real character, well known in local music circles.

http://youtu.be/ZTULeXHO5DA This one starts out dark because the guy played off stage - no hookups, and it took a minute or two for the house lights to get turned up, he did real good getting the audience going!

http://youtu.be/LDWmQWlj-DQ Typical 'laid back' coffee-house style as a number of other performers, but nice voice.

http://youtu.be/vkUMKzB1-Kc This is the final "na-na-na..." part of our big finale sing-along. At this point all the other performers have started moving down into the audience (who are also singing along). I grab the camera off the piano to pan around during the 'no instrument' break and at the end, sorry for the shakiness.

Hoping some videos of our songs show up soon, Grady (he's the one on the left in picture) recorded the whole thing on his digital recorder plugged into the sound board and on video on a super-tall tripod from the back of the venue but it will be a while before he has the videos done to his usual level of perfection.

Get it done brother. I liked the sound of that 12 string electric on the last song. Rick?

It's a Danoelecto - lots cheaper than a Rick! You've got to do a set up on one when you buy it new, and my friend said it was tough finding a hardshell case as it's a little wider than a standard Fender.
