Scott great idea, it looks very kool, how does it attach to the X stand? Also something to definitly look into....especially since my new CD "Shall We Dance" is coming out soon & could use the increased website traffic myself in a few weeks. My stage sign dosn't have my website address, only my busines cards do.

Thanx

Kool. Curious what some of the featured tunes are going to be. Can't wait to hear it. - Scott

Hi Paul. Right, I used no lead sheets on that gig. For casual parties & restaurant/bar type venues where you're more or less providing background music, I still keep a fakebook handy, especially to accomodate offbeat audience song requests, but when performing on stage as a 'featured performer', leadsheets & charts are a definite NO NO ! They act only as a distraction, guaranteed to give the audience the clear impression you're not fully prepared. Only after you've fully memorized the music & lyrics do you really own the song & can then make it yours. - Scott

Two rods, one slipped into the top and the other into the bottom pocket of the banner. The top rod sits on top of the X and is secured to the stand (all four corners) with O rings (plumbing part found at the hardware store). Very secure in the wind, yet quick ez install/removal. - Scott

Donny, great looking CD cover art (big city at night skyline) and fittingly impressive song selection. I'm really looking forward to hearing your album:

Go Away Little Girl
Let Me Try Again
Mack the Knife
Last Waltz
Love is In the Air
Everybody Loves Somebody
My Way
Quando Quando
Spanish Eyes
The Wanderer
Where or When

Hey, thanks Scott!

Regarding video formats, I watched that Tyros blues video Eric mentioned the other day which was in WMV format and that played fine (on my low spec machine). That said, my DVD player accepts MPEG video files burnt to a data CD which is handy. Swings and roundabouts...

Donny, my kind of music... looking forward to it!

It was a real pleasure chatting with Scott on MSN Messenger earlier today... first time chatting with a fellow musician 'live' online actually
