Hi all and thanks for those cheering me on -it went fine (so they say!!) Despite It was an epic 4 challenges at once! Phew dangerous!! A-my poem B-to my music first time of writing C-me singing!!! Solo for the first time!! D-Also the guitar and drums backing(first time together) could have been a fiasco!!

Hi all I am arranging to sing one of my poems (that I have set to music sort of) at a local event and having never sung solo in public before -I feel a tad nervous -will they have bricks to throw or worse that dead silence?? And cheering on would be welcome -please think of me tomorrow night and radiate some backing Cheers Patrick
