Good point! Thanks for the advice :)
I got given some advice by a really experienced performer when I was starting that served me well when I was doing open mics as a storyteller. Take their hand, lure them in, kick their arses and then pat them on the back, was the exact phrase.
That's actually fucking awesome!!!
If I opened with that song, the crowd is drained before the next song.
I've got a list I'm working through, so I'll try to select and structure the songs to that idea.
