Conflikt: concerts on Sunday

After half a week of nervousness, frantic practice, and raw fear, the concerts went well. Small audience, but that's to be expected mid-afternoon on Sunday. A few screw-ups: a swapped chorus in Middle-Sized Bear, and a large number of botched chords that probably nobody in the audience noticed. Nailed all the chord changes in Landscapes, which I wasn't expecting to do. And after taking out two verses in QV I ended up with room for one song. Callie came to my rescue by suggesting WitC, which we can nail cold.

Set list later; I'm about to head out to dinner.

You said the concerts "went well", and you obviously had a good time yourself, making music with your friends. Audiences sense that, and respond with even more positive energy. (Y'know, you could absorb some of that positive energy yourself, and still have more than enough to put back into your performance.) I wasn't even there, but I know you wowed 'em :-)
