Location: Jet City | Well, I decided to just plug an acoustic in and sing some last night. I had the cam rollin'
I think I figured out the whole sound thing now, at least when it's just the acoustic and singing anyway.
These are some of the tunes I do for my set. Comments and criticisms are welcomed.

I have no comeback for that one. Especially since I see you already cashed the check. |

Yes, SWMBO didn't waste any time cashing the check. I showed her your demo of the guitar, but she didn't seem impressed, but she wants my "help" on paint colors and curtain rods. She just doesn't get it. |

Location: Jet City | Well you and Woody and AJ and Numbfingers, and Mr. O, and Al (especially Al), and Fill, and Prof, and dvd, and everyone else at the NW gathering were a big part of my coming out of my shell and doing this stuff.
Remember when I picked you up from the airport? I was all nervous cuz I hadn't sang and played in front of anyone before. |

:D Damon said shell, not lamp. Damon, I don't know if it's a good thing that you doubted your abilities until you saw mine. I thought it was the wine that brought you out of your shell. |

Stephen, you think the vocal levels should come up? guitar down?
Or is me me just being a bit weak on the projection in the beginnings? |

Go back and listen to "Ohio" as an example.
Guitar volume is fine. I just think you need to move about 6-12 inches closer to the mic when you sing in the lower registers. |
