Another fabulous show.
Big hand to all the performers, our debutants Abi and Boris (as MC). Thanks to Andreas for handling the spotlighting and Richard for running the pre-show CFI and Zoom meeting setup.

Thank you to everyone for a wonderful evening! What a wonderful group of people to be a part of.
Great performances by everyone, and some new songs that I want to learn now!
Thank you so much Boris for the great coordination and MCing and to all the people watching, supporting and cheering along.
Can’t wait for the next one ![]()
There should be a new rule : Everyone must play with a cat in the background ![]()
What a day that was!
I admit I only watched a small part and am looking forward to see you others on the recording!
I am sorry for not spending more time on the OM cheering and supporting you!
Yesterday it was a quite tight schedule after work and I was quickly having dinner with my family between soundcheck and my performance.
This time I don’t even talk about my rendition! ![]()
Still having to sort the bits of what yesterday taught me to hopefully take something away from it
I definitely have to make the next OM somehow that I can spend more time watching and chatting! Thanks for having me anyway!
Ah - and of course thank you to all of you who helped oprganizing this! Boris, you were a really nice host!
NOTICE
The recording is now in post #1 above.

Thanks @DavidP for putting together the recording.
It was an enjoyable evening.
I had hoped to attend yesterday but alas, I had tickets to a gig (poetry not music).
I have caught up now.
A shout out to everyone who provided the entertainment.
BRAVO

Bravo on being a genial and smooth host - and wow, you had done your homework. That was a really nice touch, being able to tell a little story of each performer before they came on.

Abhu @abhiralla
What a beautiful debut performance. I hope you took great heart and confidence. Good luck with your upcoming real-life in-person debut open mic event. I’m sure you’ll be fine based on this.
It’s always a treat to hear originals to mix things up and @docdanguitarman brought another fine song for us to enjoy.
@erionstrings - good to see you stepping up with an acoustic to add to your impressive catalogue of electric OM performances.
@TheCluelessLuthier @LongSufferingWife
I can’t not mention Jenn’s new bass guitar, lovingly hand-crafted for her by long-suffering husband!!
Whoops, I’ve got that the wrong way round.
Ah well.
I can’t take it back now haha

Awesome stuff. Really enjoyed watching. This ignited the modest sparkling of desire to participate in the future.

As I said last night, I had to rush away after my songs. Just watched the recording and really enjoyed all of the performances. Well done everyone.
@DavidP - David, thanks for making the recording available. Watching it, reminded of something weird that happened on my screen at 6.45 - I think my screen went white and moved about (something like on the video and honestly I didn’t do anything at my end). It might have been the reason for the 10 extra bars of Am I played shortly after!! - or more likely, that was just down to the usual expected nerves!!
@Boris1565 - Boris - great job as host for the night. Thank you.
@Richard_close2u - Richard - thanks as always for organising.
I really enjoyed @abhiralla performance
it was splendid
big congratulations to @erionstrings too
you did an amazing job !
@DavidP I knwe you would play someNeil Young
it was really great
It was easy to hear you know your material and enjoyed playing it ![]()
Finally got to see the chat. I didn’t see it while performing. Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement. I was very surprised because I felt a little off. I could have done better with the oasis song. Lost focus for a second but I played through it. Stepping up to do an in person open mic tomorrow at a local bar and restaurant. My wife will likely do a video and maybe I’ll post it here.
Have a great time tomorrow!
Hat’s off to you Jeff for getting up in front of people, wish I had your confidence. Hope it goes well.
Had a very pleasant and entertaining evening yesterday with the recording of the show.
Congrats to all performers and a huge thank you to everyone who was involved

Thanks. Hope I do well and if not at least I finally tried it
Thanks. My pushy Irish friend has been telling me to do one for a year now. Says I should do 50 this year to be stage ready. Well I’ll start with one, no further promises lol
Thanks Deborah. Can’t leave you hanging too long without a dose of Neil ![]()
