I will arrive 1 hour before showtime to setup. I have a very simple setup of 1 amplifier for my acoustic guitar and microphone. I prefer a space of at least 5ft x 5ft and require a power source. Depending on the type of performance occasion, an armless chair, bench or stool may be appropriate. I can perform 1 long set or 2-3 shorter sets with breaks between. I can perform covers only, covers and originals or originals only.
