Hi folks, Maybe this thread isn`t something new, but I`ll give it a try.
Sometimes when I play with my blues friends on stage and the chemistry between us and the people is great I start walking through the crowd. This is NOT part of every concert I`m playing. These moments are rare and not a professional entertainment part out of the box.
I`ll show you what I mean.
I would like to see and read more about this special thing between you and the blues listeners.
Greetings from Münster, germany Mario Hemken

Whatever chemistry you might have had with the audience didn't seem to apply to that fellow at the table who you were trying to engage with. Until the end, when he clapped as enthusiastically as anyone else.
Hey, you surely aren't the first performer to take off out into the audience during a show. Seems to me that when that happens, the people in the audience usually like it. Gets them "up close and personal" with the musician, sort of.
i would take to the dance floor when my band did "house party" by geils. i'd even hold the mic so folks could sing into it. of course, they didnt know that without being right on the mic they werent really being heard, but they seemed to dig it.
Great sound you guys have going on. Rory McLeod started a gig last week walking around the audience, blowing harp into a large beer glass. He then pretended to be talking to his Mum on the phone. When the ice cubes fell on the floor he said, "What's that? Ice and snow?" Very cool. ----------
